Milroe runs, passes No. 8 Alabama to 42-28 victory over No. 13 LSU, Daniels leaves with injury

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- , Jalen Milroe lowered his shoulder and knocked down an LSU defensive back. Ultimately, Milroe and No. 8 Alabama did the same thing to the 13th-ranked Tigers, muscling through the latest challenge standing in their way. The Crimson Tide quarterback rushed for 155 yards and four touchdowns and passed for another 219 yards to lead Alabama to a 42-28 victory over LSU on Saturday night. Milroe matched big plays both running and passing with the Tigers' Heisman Trophy candidate Jayden Daniels and the Tide (8-1, 6-0 Southeastern Conference, No. 8 CFP) moved closer to locking down an SEC West title. Alabama also continued its rise back into playoff contention with a seventh consecutive win, with few of them coming easily. “Probably as close to a complete game as we’ve played all year and we needed to play a game like that,” Tide coach Nick Saban said.
