  LSU running back Tyrion Davis-Price and the Tiger's offensive line apparently have figured something out. That could improve LSU's prospects for the balance of what has been a turbulent season. Davis-Price rushed for an LSU-record 287 yards and three touchdowns, and the Tigers' banged-up defense came up with four interceptions in a 49-42 victory over No. 20 Florida on Saturday. First-year offensive coordinator Jake Peetz "challenged us the last few weeks to go in and create a running game," Davis-Price said, alluding to earlier struggles that had LSU ranked 127th nationally in rushing entering this weekend. "The offensive line has been busting their tails with extra work and I couldn't be more proud of them. I love doing work for them. "There were big holes for me to run through; they deserve all the credit in the world," he added.

The stirring performance produced thunderous roars from a less-than-capacity Death Valley crowd that came in with low expectations after unranked LSU (4-3, 2-2 Southeastern Conference) had dropped its previous two games against Auburn and Kentucky, fueling speculation that coach Ed Orgeron's hold on his job was tenuous at best. "I'm not going to blink until the day I die; but our team didn't blink today," Orgeron said. "Our backs are against the wall, but we took a big step." After Damone Clark's interception of Florida quarterback Anthony Richardson, Davis-Price literally and fittingly ran out the final 1:59 on Florida (4-3, 2-3). He ran for two more first downs and broke the previous LSU single-game rushing record of 285 yards by Derrius Guice. Max Johnson passed for 133 yards and three touchdowns - all to Jaray Jenkins. The last one came on fourth and goal with 3:30 left. - LSU/AP College Football
