Will LSU jump Alabama Sunday for No. 1? Reaction from around the country

The LSU Tigers remained undefeated Saturday by beating Auburn 23-20.

No, LSU didn’t play its best game, but it was good enough against perhaps the best defense it will face all season. Joe Burrow finished 32-of-42 for 321 yards and one touchdown, and running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire finished with 26 carries for 136 yards and one touchdown.

It’s hard to go undefeated in any conference, especially the SEC, and the Tigers have managed to do just that thus far.

Currently, LSU is ranked No. 2 in the Associated Press’ Top 25, but with its win over Auburn, LSU has now beaten three top 10 teams (at the time of playing them); Texas and Florida are the other two.

Is that enough to jump Alabama for No. 1? We’ll find out Sunday. Remember the first College Football Playoff rankings won’t debut until November 5.
