On Saturday Night, LSU faces off against Alabama under the lights of Tiger Stadium in a massive game that could determine the race to the SEC Championship and the race to the College Football Playoff. The game is expected to be a close matchup so to get an idea of how this game may go, we simulated a game of EA College Football 25.

The game started off with LSU going three and out and Alabama instantly made the Tigers pay for it as Jalen Milroe hit Germie Bernard on a 73 yard bomb for a touchdown. The Tigers defense would be the ones who started LSU's scoring on a safety which LSU would then cash in on thanks to a Caden Durham 2 yard touchdown giving the Tigers a 9-7 first quarter lead.

The Tide controlled the second quarter opening scoring on a 50 yard field goal from Graham Nicholson. Jalen Milroe would score big again this time to Emmanuel Henderson on a 69 yard touchdown but, Graham Nicholson missed the extra point keeping it a seven point game.

The Tide would go up 14 on Emmanuel Henderson's second touchdown of the game putting LSU down 14 heading into the fourth quarter.

The Tigers cut the lead right back to 7 starting the fourth quarter off with a 40 yard touchdown from Kyren Lacy. The Tigers would then score on a 10 yard run by Caden Durham to tie the game with just under two minutes to go. The Crimson Tide got into field goal range but, Graham Nicholson missed a long field goal attempt sending the game into overtime.

The Tigers defense came up big as Jalen Milroe made his only mistake off the night throwing an interception to Whit Weeks. The Tigers then iced the game in overtime on a 2 yard touchdown from Caden Durham giving LSU another walk off winner in overtime against the Tide.

While the defense got gashed by the big play, they made some big plays of their own as Bradyn Swinson recorded two sacks and Whit Weeks intercepted Jalen Milroe in overtime.

Kyren Lacy was his typical self cathcing six passes for 103 yards and a score leading the Tigers in receiving. The Tigers ground game found some momentum as Caden Durham picked up 65 yards on the ground while Chris Hilton Jr took a wide receiver handoff 40 yards. It wasn't Garrett Nussmeier's best game as he completed just 16 of 30 attempts but, he did not turn the ball over.
