Jordan Jefferson came a long way in the two weeks since the worst outing of his young career.

Jefferson threw for a career-high 242 yards, including two touchdown passes, and scrambled for another score to lead No. 9 LSU to a 31-10 victory over fading Auburn on Saturday night.

"We always knew we could do this as an offense," Jefferson said. "We picked the right time tonight to do it. It was important for me to do this as well. During the bye week we really worked hard on all the things that we had mistakes on."
