Jalen Milroe owns property in Death Valley after acquiring control in Baton Rouge.
The Alabama quarterback rushed for four touchdowns as No. 11 Alabama defeated the 15th-seeded LSU Tigers 42-13 on Saturday night.
Alabama made a play from the jump as Milroe ran for a 39-yard score on the first drive of the night. After allowing a field goal, it was Judge Haynes who broke through Pyle for a 1-yard touchdown. The Tigers would only add another field goal before the first half, but Milroe found the end zone again and headed back to the locker room with a 21-6 lead.

LSU's first drive of the second half was nearly perfect, getting inside the opposing 5-yard line, but Garrett Nussmeier threw a costly interception in the end zone and the Crimson Tide wasted no time. LSU's facemask penalty helped Bama more than ever, and Milroe eventually scored a 19-yard touchdown to take a 28-6 lead.
After being forced to punt, Bama got the ball back early in the fourth quarter, but that was the biggest blow for Milroe. He found some holes and scored a 72-yard touchdown for a 35-6 Crimson Tide lead.
To make matters worse, Alabama's defense didn't allow a touchdown until just 11 seconds into the game.

Ole Miss fans storm the field in remaining time, delay expected until end of game
Milroe rushed for 185 yards on 12 total carries, with 33% of his carries reaching the end zone.
The loss is a crushing loss for LSU, which entered the game ranked 15th in the nation. So they're going to need a lot of help just thinking about the College Football Playoff.
Bama, on the other hand, is currently on a two-game winning streak after losing two of their past three games. Before the loss, they had erased a 28-point lead against Georgia, and there was growing concern about cheating.
But Saturday's dominance over their longtime SEC rivals was a reminder that they won't be eliminated easily. – With losses to No. 3 Georgia and No. 4 Miami, they should be in the top 10 in next week's rankings.
