While Brian Kelly slamming his fist on the table in his postgame press conference grabbed the headlines, a comment the LSU coach made about his quarterback might rankle fans more.

Following a 27-20 loss to USC, Kelly said Trojans quarterback Miller Moss "outplayed our quarterback" while giving broad praise of the Trojans signal-caller.

Moss went 27-of-36 for 378 yards and one touchdown while LSU's Garrett Nussmeier was 29-of-38 for 304 yards, two touchdowns and a late interception. There wasn't much to separate the two.
