The vaunted LSU defense, which had begun springing leaks weeks ago, gave way to gushers of yards Saturday night as the Arkansas Razorbacks upset the Tigers 31 -23.
Quarterback Jordan Jefferson went just about the entire way, consistently facing 3rd and long and just as importantly, not letting the Tigers defense get any semblance of rest.
And it showed.
Razorback rusher Knile Davis knifed through purple and gold defenders for 158 yards on 31 carries.
Arkansas gained 465 yards on one of the best defenses in the country.
The Tigers will still be eligible for a great game, but the fantasy, the mirage of being the best team outside of Auburn is over.
