Lane Kiffin's return to Oxford ended in a 32-24 loss to Ole Miss, dropping LSU's CFP odds as a brutal upcoming schedule awaits.

LSU football avoided a disastrous scenario involving tight end Trey’Dez Green , who steered from a season-ending knee injury Sunday. But defensive back Dashawn Spears faced a different fate. Spears suffered a season-ending knee injury following the Ole Miss game.

After Spears was hurt, LSU inserted two young defensive backs into the Star spot: first sophomore CJ Jimcoily and then redshirt freshman Jhase Thomas. Tight ends Zach Grace, Malachi Thomas and Roman Mothershed each took turns filling in for Green, whose mother said he would miss “some games” with “some bad sprains and bruises.”

A marquee clash in the SEC had the expected effect on the Coaches Poll top 25 college football rankings heading into Week 4, but voters made some other big moves, too.

Trinidad Chambliss and Ole Miss may have crushed LSU's CFP hopes in Week 3.
