The No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide came to Baton Rouge and rolled over the defending national champion LSU Tigers, 55-17, to move to 9-0 on the season.
The Crimson Tide jumped out to an early 21-0 lead and scored touchdowns on their first five possessions, behind quarterback Mac Jones and wide receiver DeVonta Smith.
LSU finally got on the board in the second quarter when quarterback TJ Finley found freshman Kayshon Boutte for what appeared to be a 43-yard touchdown reception.
However, Boutte dropped the ball right before the goal line. Officials later ruled that Boutte fumbled and Jontre Kirklin recovered it for the score.
Alabama went back to work when Jones found Smith for an easy 65-yard touchdown.
LSU gave it one more shot as running back John Emery Jr. had an impressive 54-yard touchdown run to cut the lead back to 28-14.
That would essentially end the competitive portion of this one.
Finley completed 14 of 28 passes for 143 yards and a touchdown. Emery Jr. led the Tigers with 79 rushing yards on seven attempts and one score.
The Tigers play Florida next week in a game that was originally scheduled for October.
