LSU's Playoff and SEC Hopes Dashed by Alabama

News summary

LSU coach Brian Kelly is facing significant criticism after a 42-13 loss to Alabama, which effectively ended the team's hopes for a College Football Playoff berth and SEC championship contention. This defeat, marked by Alabama's Jalen Milroe's standout performance with 185 rushing yards and four touchdowns, highlighted LSU's defensive struggles and offensive turnovers, particularly by quarterback Garrett Nussmeier. Kelly took responsibility for the loss, acknowledging that the team did not live up to LSU's football standards and underscoring the need for better preparation and execution. Despite high expectations upon his arrival, Kelly's tenure at LSU has been marred by a poor record against ranked opponents and difficulties in critical matchups. The defeat has sparked widespread disapproval from fans, with some questioning Kelly's ability to succeed in high-stakes games, a narrative that has persisted since his move from Notre Dame.
