LSU's 'best players played their best' in upset of Ole Miss

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Jayden Daniels ran for three touchdowns and passed for two scores, and LSU roared back from an early two-touchdown deficit to hand No. 7 Ole Miss its first loss this season, 45-20 on Saturday.

The performance gave the dynamic Daniels the LSU record for touchdowns rushing in a season by a quarterback with nine. Daniels also has accounted for 11 TDs rushing or passing combined in the span of two games. He had three of each in a 45-35 victory at Florida last weekend.

Reveling in the resounding triumph over a historical and highly-ranked rival, LSU fans stormed the field as the game ended.
