This will be the true test for Ed Orgeron and the 2020 Tigers as Alabama comes to town for a huge November showdown which could have serious SEC title and College Football Playoff implications. This also starts an absolute gauntlet of a road for LSU in the month of November and a win here would go a long way.

Know how many LSU vs. Alabama games are classics? Well, this one will follow that same trend and the Tigers will score the game-winning touchdown in the final minute to win a monster game.

Final Score: Alabama 20, LSU 24 (8-1, 4-1)

Fresh off their biggest win of the season, LSU hosts a struggling South Carolina team, but the Gamecocks shocked Georgia last season on the road, so this could be a trap.

The Tigers will start iff slow and it’ll have that feel of an upset alert, but the second half will be all LSU as Ed Orgeron and Co. may spell the end of the Will Muschamp era in Columbia.

Final Score: South Carolina 13, LSU 31 (9-1, 5-1)
