'Imagine if we had pro players': LSU blows out Clemson 51-10 as Lane Kiffin trolls all of college football
LSU defeated Clemson 51-10 in a dominant college football performance, prompting coach Lane Kiffin to make a provocative comment about his roster. The win signals a strong start for LSU despite offseason controversies and media noise.

Yes, it's early September. Yes, LSU beat the orange off an overmatched Clemson squad that's unranked and yet still overrated.
