It's hard to say, because it's so early in the season.

They are very different teams. So far this year I would say Texas has looked better but who knows who will be better by the end of the year. They are very close either way, and the Texas game was a road game, so I would say the Texas game is a better win.

Auburn beating Oregon put an early bullet to the head of the PAC for the CFP

LSU beating texas will keep the loveliest going for texas to get in the CFP

If Oklahoma beats texas now they are pretty much zombie for the CFP

IMO, Texas is the better win because:

A) They were as high as #5 Preseason in some publications
B) They truly are a Top 12 Team. Oregon fell to 16 after that loss to Auburn

1) Location matters. Auburn beat Oregon at a neutral site. LSU beat Texas in a true road game. Big difference.

2) The way the game was won matters. LSU was the frontrunner and put up a 2 TD margin before Texas' final window-dressing TD. Auburn trailed the entire way and needed a 4Q comeback to win.

3) The eye-test matters. Auburn looks like hot garbage. Again. Hell even my Auburn buddies were texting me about it during the game. They looked like hot garbage against Tulane, too, for that matter.

Conclusion: LSU's win over Texas was easily better.

Whatever makes you feel better about yourself and your team. The game between LSU and auburn isn’t far off, we will know soon enough who is better.

Oregon and Texas offenses are even. Oregon has a better defense.

I do believe Oregon would beat Texas.

Oregon has the better defense, Texas the better offense.

Both games were close wins.

So... about even honestly.

We beat Oregon worse in 2011, but Texas was fun too.

The Auburn win shut up a conference and the LSU win shut up the country. There is no hype ,achine like Texas. That win was a massive kick to the nuts of the B12 and all the rest of the country that the SEC is still supreme as even in what could be a weak year it has 4 playoff quality teams which is more than any other conference and it's 1-8 are better than every other conference.

Better and likely more relevant question for CFP purposes: What’s the better loss? Oregon losing to Auburn or Texas losing to LSU?
