Joe Burrow Lights Up Arkansas for 3 TDs as No. 1 LSU Rolls to 56-20 Win

The LSU Tigers moved one step closer to the College Football Playoff thanks to Saturday's 56-20 victory over the Arkansas Razorbacks in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

LSU has locked up a spot in the SEC Championship Game for the first time since 2011. The nation's No. 1 team will take on Georgia for the conference title in two weeks, but there is still work for them to do before going to Atlanta.

The Tigers got off to a slow start, holding a 7-6 lead into the second quarter. Joe Burrow and the offense erupted with three straight touchdown drives to take a 22-point lead into halftime.
