LSU’s Lane Kiffin reveals how Tigers can still beat Alabama before halftime
Follow
Alabama defeated No. 14 LSU 31-13 in Baton Rouge, a result that significantly diminished the Tigers' College Football Playoff prospects under first-year coach Lane Kiffin.
The Crimson Tide, ranked No. 5, secured the victory with a dominant fourth quarter, during which LSU failed on all four of their fourth-down attempts and managed only one touchdown across four red zone trips.
Quarterback Keelon Russell led the offense with three passing touchdowns, while the Alabama defense made several critical stops to preserve the lead. The loss dropped Kiffin to 0-6 in his career against Alabama, a record that includes his previous tenures at Mississippi and Tennessee.
LSU finished the game with a 6-3 overall record and a 3-3 mark in the SEC, while Alabama improved to 7-2 overall and 5-2 in conference play.
