LSU’s 13-10 win over Arkansas on Saturday may have become an SEC West-clinching one after Alabama held on against Ole Miss in Oxford, but it certainly wasn’t pretty.
Quarterback Jayden Daniels was sacked seven times and turned the ball over twice in what was easily his least efficient outing of the year. The defense delivered a gem, however, led by a monster game from true freshman linebacker Harold Perkins, who had four sacks and two forced fumbles.
In spite of an up-and-down performance, the Tigers are moving up in the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll after Oregon’s loss to Washington in Week 11. Here’s how the full top 25 breaks down this week as we approach the end of the regular season.

The Tigers no longer remain in the FPI top 10 after Saturday’s loss.
The Tigers QB is a bit banged up but should be good to go this week.
