What an interesting season it’s been for LSU. The year began with a deflating loss to Florida State on a neutral field and to start the month of November, the Tigers picked up a huge win over No. 6 Alabama.

Brian Kelly went from the most hated man in Baton Rouge in Week 1 to the most celebrated. He went from potential way-too-early hot seat to “extend this man immediately” in the span of a couple of months. Kelly has turned this team around completely and the Tigers are now 7-2 overall and 5-1 in league play.

LSU is in the driver’s seat in the SEC West and the Tigers control their own destiny after topping divisional foe Alabama in overtime.

Jayden Daniels has come into his own a bit with the Tigers and his arm and legs helped them upset Alabama in Week 10.

I see LSU jumping into the top six this week, basically switching spots with the Tide.
