Monday with Mike: The unbeaten 13
LSU
Games to watch: Oct. 23 at Auburn, Nov. 6 vs. Alabama, Nov. 27 at Arkansas
Buzz: The Tigers have been living on the edge. Seriously — back-to-back last minute wins featuring an untimed final play because the other team had 13 men on the field and a fake field goal in which the holder had an over-the-shoulder toss that bounced perfectly into the kicker’s hands? LSU can play defense and run the ball. Eventually, though, the Tigers will need to make some plays in the passing game, and you wonder if they will be able to. If LSU beats Auburn in that battle of Tigers, Nick Saban’s visit to the Bayou on Nov. 6 will be mind-boggling in its intensity.
Verdict: Two losses
