What LSU showed in upset of Miami – and what it means for Texas A&M, SEC

ARLINGTON -- When LSU sophomore linebacker Jacob Phillips stumbled into the end zone followed by an entourage of his teammates, everything pointed toward a big upset for the No. 25 Tigers.

The half of AT&T Stadium in purple and gold chanted their school's name while the sideline erupted at yet another play that went the Tigers' way. LSU was up by multiple touchdowns -- and the first half wasn't even over yet.

In a 33-17 upset win over No. 8 Miami that felt more lopsided than the score indicates, coach Ed Orgeron's team did more than pick up a key win in the season opener for both schools.
