While we're discussing 2020 OOC games, what are the 5 worst OOC losses from SEC teams that you can think of?
Since I'm a UGA fan, we'll limit this to 1980-Present.
Some considerations:
ULM over Alabama
South Alabama over MSU
Troy over LSU
Georgia Southern over Florida
Georgia State over Tennessee
The Citadel over SCAR
UCF over Auburn
Boise St. over UGA
UCLA over TAMU* (because LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL)
Temple over Vandy
Jacksonville St. over Ole Miss
Arkansas: take your pick...
WKU over Kentucky
*I'd exclude TAMU's loss to ULL since TAMU was in the Big 12 at the time.

UCF over UGA. At least our loss was to a good UCF team.

They finished #6. It was embarrassing the way we lost, but it wasn’t even close to the other ones on this list.

Because it's the single biggest collapse in College Football History.
Michigan State may have overcome a 38-3 halftime deficit to beat Northwestern 41-38, but that was over two full quarters.
A&M led UCLA 44-10 at the 2:20 mark of the 3rd quarter. That's a 34 point lead blown in a span of 14:20 worth of game time.
34 points over 14:20 is MUCH worse than 35 points over 30:00.
For the reasons I just mentioned, ULM overcoming a 21-point halftime deficit and beating #10 Arkansas in overtime in 2012 has to be Arkansas' most embarrassing OOC loss.

Troy over LSU is personal, hurt badly.
One not on the list is LaTech over Ole Miss in Oxford about 5 years ago, not sure exactly the year.
ULM over Alabama, but really Alabama wasn't "back" yet despite the fact Saban was coaching.

UCF finished that season 11-3 and ranked 20th/21st. UGA finished the season 6-7 after the Liberty Bowl loss to UCF.
NY6 loss to a G5 school is worse, IMO.

Bama’s loss to UCF in ‘00. Of course we he had Debose at the helm so it was really two mid-majors going at it.

If you want to call UCF the National Champs that year, then you don't need to make fun of the half dozen of bullshite Alabama "national titles".

Alabama went through about a 10-year period where they lost to Lousiana Tech twice, Northern Illinois, Louisiana-Monroe, Southern Miss, Hawaii, and UCF... the old 1990s UCF, not UCF today.
It's honestly unreal to even fathom a program like Alabama losing all those games.

The 21-0 loss to Southern Miss in 2000 was worse than the UCF loss. Worst game I have ever seen Bama play.

I mean we could go all day with these
- 1997 Louisiana Tech (Bama went 4-7)
- 1999 Louisiana Tech (we then won the SEC)
- 2000 Southern Miss (the original 21-0) (Bama went 3-9)
- 2000 UCF (Bama went 3-9)
- 2003 Northern Illinois (Bama went 4-9)
- 2003 Hawaii (Bama went 4-9)

I wasn't much of a fan of UGA losing to Colorado in 2010.

Maine Loss is way worse than South Alabama lol

I only make fun of the 1941 one.

UAB beat LSU in Saban's first year in Baton Rouge - I'm convinced Saban threw that game to get a point across just like he did with ULM beating Bama in his first season there
Miami Ohio upset LSU back in the 80's when LSU was highly ranked
