Ole Miss sneaks past LSU in a crazy finish
The #10 LSU Tigers and Mississippi played a less-than-thrilling 57 minutes to start the game, but the final three minutes gave football fans plenty of excitement. Ole Miss led LSU 25-17 with 3:32 left and the LSU offense marched down field and scored a TD with 1:23 left in the game. LSU tried for two points and failed, but then things got really interesting.
LSU’s kicker Josh Jasper kicked a perfect onside kick that was recovered by Brandon LaFell on LSU’s 42 yard line with 1:17 left.
At this point…
-LSU had two timeouts left and
-Jasper kicked a 50-yard FG earlier in the game
LSU Sneaks Past La. Tech, 24-16

Keiland Williams was LSU's only solid player from Saturday's "game" vs. La. Tech
LSU hasn’t lost to Louisiana Tech in over a century and on Saturday, there were times were that streak was going to end. Lousiana Tech hasn’t beaten LSU since 1904 and they gave LSU all they could handle in Baton Rouge.
Who would have thought that not having Jordan Jefferson or Charles Scott would have made LSU struggle so much. The Tigers did fine replacing Scott with Keiland Williams, but Jarrett Lee reminded everyone why he is 2nd string. Williams rushed for 116 yards on 15 carries with two TDs. Lee went 7 for 22 for 105 yards and a TD. Ouch! While I have criticized Jefferson this year, he is way better than Lee and Jordan gives LSU a much better chance of winning.
Bama Beats LSU 24-15, Secures SEC West

Alabama running back Mark Ingram helps Bama run past LSU for the first time in Tuscaloosa since 1999
Saban Bowl III lived up to the hype and LSU made their old coach sweat a bit more than he would have liked too Saturday afternoon. The #9 LSU Tigers led most of the game and had some opportunities to continue their winning streak at Tuscaloosa, but couldn’t pull it out.
Since I give myself some time to write these recaps, I get a chance to read other articles about LSU’s games to see how my thoughts stacked up. A common key play among writers was the incomplete pass, that appeared to be a Patrick Peterson interception to everyone south of the Mason-Dixon line, that Greg McElroy threw with about 7 minutes left in the game. As a result, Alabama took more time off the clock and kicked a field goal, giving the Tide a nine point lead with 3:04 left. Now people can whine till the cows come home about the call and the SEC officiating this season and they can, but think about this.
IF McElroy’s pass was ruled an interception, here is what would have been the situation.
1. LSU ball on their 31 with 6:26, trailing 21-15
2. Jordan Jefferson was out of the game, so Jarrett Lee would have to lead the charge
3. Charles Scott was also knocked out of the game
LSU Defeats Vandy, Rain.

LSU RB Keiland Williams scored twice, leading LSU past Vanderbilt 23-9.
Mother Nature probably made the biggest impact in Saturday night’s LSU vs. Vandy game. The rain in Baton Rouge certainly made passing and holding onto the football much tougher. There were 5 fumbles, including one resulting in a safety. The passing game on both sides became very conservative.
