Coach Lane Kiffin's LSU Tigers took on the Texas Longhorns in a game they led until the very end, before faltering in a soul-crushing 22-21 loss that saw Arch Manning engineer a final drive comeback. Dilin Jones' epic run gave LSU a late lead, but the defense ceded a TD pass to Raleek Brown that had fans beside themselves in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Fans commiserated on social media after the game as they vented frustrations together.
“Maybe LSU did not account for a scenario where hiring Lane Kiffin results in them becoming a laughing stock,” one person said.
“So much hype for LSU this year. Disappointment,” another added.
