'You better run': LSU chases away doubters with victory over No. 8 Miami

ARLINGTON, Texas - There was reason to celebrate on Sunday night for No. 25 LSU.

Minutes after an impressive 33-17 win over No. 8 Miami, Florida native and LSU safety John Battle jogged off the AT&T Stadium field, Mardi Gras beads dangling from his neck.

He was one of the final Tigers to head to the tunnel and when he did, he encountered one last Hurricane - Miami mascot Sebastian the Ibis.

"You better run," Battle said with a laugh befitting of someone that just picked up a win over family and close friends on the Miami roster.
