LSU's Harold Perkins ices win over Arkansas, as fans and media react to SEC West title hopes
LSU made it difficult with a slow start in the cold at Arkansas, but the Tigers pulled out a late victory to keep hopes alive for an SEC West title.
The Tigers got a third-quarter touchdown from Josh Williams and that lead stood up despite an Arkansas touchdown. LSU overcame a lackluster passing game with just 86 yards, and the Tigers were just 5-for-15 on third and fourth down. Harold Perkins made a late fumble in his latest pressure against Arkansas, something he’d done throughout the game.
LSU now now needs Alabama to beat Ole Miss to clinch the SEC West.
Here’s a sample of the reaction:
Harold Perkins. Again.

Harold Perkins just gave us one of the best individual performances of the last decade. That kid is insane

Wait, Harold Perkins is a true freshman?!
I would like to purchase all of the stock now, please. I do not care the cost. ???

If we somehow win this, might be the worst win in LSU history this is absolutely terrible

Even if LSU wins here they are fraudulent to me. Such a joke Bama lost to this team.
Also how do people keep having Will Levis over Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, or Hendon Hooker.
Those teams aren’t losing to Vandy. Ever.

I don’t care that LSU won, they just ended any chance of them making the Playoff. Their margin of error with 2 losses is basically 0. You can’t squeak by a bad team with their 3rd string QB & expect to be one of the 4 teams remaining at the end.
But hey. Harold Perkins is a DAWG
