FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Caden Durham ran for 101 yards and three touchdowns, Damian Ramos made a career-best four field goals, and No. 4 LSU handled Arkansas 34-10 on Saturday night. The Tigers (6-1, 3-0 Southeastern Conference) continued their stranglehold over the Razorbacks in the Battle for The Golden Boot series, securing their eighth win in the last nine meetings. LSU has won five consecutive games in Fayetteville dating back to 2016. Whit Weeks, the SEC's leading tackler entering the weekend, helped provide the Tigers some breathing room late in the third quarter when he deflected and intercepted a Taylen Green pass inside the Arkansas 5. Durham scored on a two-yard run on the next play. Ramos, whose 20-yard kick lifted LSU over the Razorbacks in 2023, connected on field goals of 33, 33, 47 and 48 yards. His last attempt pushed him to 12 of 14 this season. Garrett Nussmeier threw for 224 yards, and CJ Daniels caught seven passes for 86 yards for the Tigers. Weeks finished with nine tackles and a sack on top of the interception. The Tigers' offense overcame an uncharacteristic night penalty-wise. The unit was flagged 11 times, including eight in the first half and seven total false starts. For Arkansas (4-3, 2-2), Green passed for 239 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Andrew Armstrong had seven receptions for 94 yards and his first touchdown of the season. The Razorbacks failed to gain traction in the running game, totaling a season-low 38 yards on 19 carries. Poll implications With No. 7 Alabama's road loss to No. 11 Tennessee on Saturday, LSU is likely to move up at least one spot — maybe more — in the upcoming poll. The takeaway LSU: The Tigers won their sixth game in a row and did so comfortably on the road. LSU's defense allowed just 277 yards and forced three turnovers. That bodes well with a trip to hostile Kyle Field to face No. 14 Texas A&M next week. Arkansas: The Razorbacks remain in solid position to become bowl eligible, needing two more wins. But Arkansas needs to figure some things out offensively, particularly in the running game and with ball security. Up next LSU: The Tigers travel to Texas A&M next week. Arkansas: The Razorbacks travel to Mississippi State next week.
