Jalen Milroe highlighted a career-high 185 yards rushing with four scoring runs, and No. 11 Alabama routed 14th-ranked LSU 42-13 on Saturday night.
Milroe’s fourth touchdown also was his longest run, a 72-yard sprint that gave the Crimson Tide (7-2, 4-2 Southeastern Conference) a 29-point lead early in the fourth quarter of a pivotal game for the College Football Playoff hopes of both teams.
While Alabama’s victory keeps the Crimson Tide firmly in contention, the Tigers (6-3, 3-2) dropped virtually out of the running with not only their third loss this season, but their second straight by 15 or more points.
