No. 16 LSU (6-2, 3-1) will take on the Alabama Crimson Tide on Nov. 9 in a showdown that wil have significant College Football Playoff implications on the line.

Brian Kelly and Co. will host Kalen DeBoer's squad in Week 11 following an open date this week with the next two weeks providing sole focus on the task at hand.

After dropping a Week 9 contest to Texas A&M last weekend in College Station, the Bayou Bengals will have to quickly shake the bad taste in their mouths moving forward.

“I mean, we’ve lost our margin, right? We have no margin for error. We have to go back and look at some of the things I just talked about, right? We have to build balance within the offense," Kelly said in College Station on Saturday. "We have to be able to handle the running quarterback. The silliness of the field-goal stuff, that has got to end. That is just ridiculous. We’ll clean that up in short order. But those two things in particular."
