LSU’s Lane Kiffin Places Blame for Brutal Loss Against Alabama
Follow
Lane Kiffin saw his LSU Tigers fall 31-13 to No. 5 Alabama, a defeat that left the 15th‑ranked team at 6‑3 overall and 3‑3 in SEC play.
The Crimson Tide dominated red‑zone opportunities, holding LSU to just one touchdown on four chances, while LSU’s offense sputtered with a missed field goal, a turnover on downs and an interception in the second quarter. Kiffin’s decision to go for it on fourth down inside the ten‑yard line was highlighted as a risky call that did not pay off.
The loss, witnessed by a crowd that included First Lady Melania Trump and actor Kevin Costner, further dimmed LSU’s College Football Playoff hopes.
