No. 3 LSU

The LSU Tigers waltzed into Austin and blackened the eyes of Texas. There wasn’t a lot of defense to be found which is shocking though when considering the Tigers are known to be stout on that side of the ball.

Once again, Joe Burrow and the LSU offense stole the show and showed the world, and Sam Ehlinger in particular, that Texas might not in fact be “back”. The importance of this win will surely help LSU’s playoff chances down the road even if the Tigers drop a game against Auburn or Alabama.

A quick note about the Auburn Tigers and Bo Nix: This team belongs nowhere near the number 8 spot in the rankings.

This offense will inevitably get exposed later this season. The win against Oregon was actually an epic choke job by the Ducks.

The Auburn Tigers and their “freshman phenom” quarterback Bo Nix are nothing more than a house of cards.

Another quick note on Texas: The Longhorns aren’t back.
