Not talking about games like 2009 LSU or 2010 Auburn/Arkansas that we should have won, these are games where we were the more talented team and we outplayed our opponent on the field and still lost.

2013 Auburn - TBD how this affects us.
2009 Houston - We were much better. Couldn't beat C-USA refs and it cost us a bowl
2008 Louisiana Tech - killed momentum for our season in the opener.
2008 Kentucky - really meant nothing, but we were better
2006 Tulane - Know it was a comeback, but we should have won that game by 30.
2006 Kentucky - A forgotten heartbreaker
2003 Tulane and Houston - Back to back C-USA losses turned a 4-2 start into a 2-10 season
2001 South Carolina, Auburn, Troy, Alabama, Arkansas and BYU - We were better than all of these teams.
2000 South Carolina - The fade game that cost us College Gameday
2000 LSU - Should have beaten those bastards in Baton Rouge
2000 Arkansas - Beat both SEC division champs and lost to a 6-6 Arkansas team
1999 Arkansas - Let Alabama beat us twice.
1998 Kentucky - Lost 37-35 to Kentucky in our division championship year
1997 Arkansas and Ole Miss - Led the West going into the last two and couldn't win either.
