LSU is the biggest faller in this week’s US LBM Coaches Poll after loss to Ole Miss
LSU’s College Football Playoff hopes likely came to an end on Saturday night in Oxford, Mississippi.
The Tigers received another Heisman-worthy performance from Jayden Daniels with the help of his lights-out supporting cast on offense against Ole Miss, but the defense, which struggled in a tight win over Arkansas, was abysmal.
The Tigers allowed 706 yards to the Rebels in a 55-49 barnburner loss, and it caused coach Brian Kelly’s team to fall out of the top 20 in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll as LSU was the biggest faller this week.
