GAINESVILLE, FLA. - It all caught up to LSU on Saturday at the Swamp.
The gauntlet schedule.
The inconsistent offense.
The inexperience at key positions.
The mojo that fueled LSU's improbable rise to the top of college football finally ran dry on a sticky, ear-shattering night at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.
Florida's 27-19 victory before a sweaty, delirious crowd of 90,283 ended LSU's hopes for an unbeaten season and delivered the first dose of adversity to what had been a magical start to the 2018 campaign.
"Tough loss," LSU coach Ed Orgeron said.
