LSU was inactive this weekend after a shutout win over Army in Week 8, and now this team’s season will largely come down to next weekend’s contest against Alabama.
With a win, the Tigers would have a good shot at winning the SEC West, reaching the New Year’s Six and would even have an outside shot at the College Football Playoff.

While LSU has designs on a better finish to the season, it would certainly be an intriguing matchup.
