It looks like Livvy Dunne and the defending national champion LSU gymnastics team will be returning to the No. 1 ranking after knocking off the top-ranked Oklahoma Sooners on Friday night in front of the third-largest crowd in PMAC history.

The epic SEC showdown came down to the wire with freshman standout Kailin Chio and reigning NCAA all-around champion Haleigh Bryant lifting the Tigers to a 198.050-197.675 victory.

Chio, who earned back-to-back SEC Freshman of the Week honors entering the Oklahoma matchup, had an all-around score of 39.725 which was higher than all of the Sooners' gymnasts on the night.

Chio's incredible night included a 9.950 on the floor, 9.950 on the vault, and 9.9 on the uneven bars.

Haleigh Bryant also scored a 9.950 on vault to help start the night strong, but many believed she deserved a 10 for the nearly flawless pass.

After the meet, the official LSU gymnastics Instagram account shared news of the victory which drew a strong reaction from Livvy Dunne.
