Daniels passed for 182 yards, rushed for 95 and connected with Mason Taylor for the winning conversion as the Tigers (7-2, 5-1 SEC) took the lead in the SEC West.
Bryce Young passed for 328 yards and a touchdown to lead the Tide (7-2, 4-2), who lost for the second time in three games.
Alabama got the ball first in overtime and Roydell Williams ran 1 yard for a touchdown and a 31-24 lead.
But on the Tigers' first play, Daniels ran 25 yards for a touchdown and coach Brian Kelly decided to go for the win and Taylor barely crossed the goal line after catching Daniels' pass.
Alabama's Will Reichard kicked a 46-yard field goal with 21 seconds left in the fourth quarter to force overtime after the lead changed hands six times in the second half.
Daniels had thrown a 7-yard touchdown pass to Taylor to give LSU a 24-21 lead with 1:47 left.

LSU responded on the ensuing possession with a 75-yard drive that ended with Josh Williams' 2-yard run for a 14-9 lead with 3:30 left in the third quarter.
The Tide drove 76 yards and Roydell Williams' 2-yard touchdown run gave them a 15-14 lead with 12:37 remaining.

Young's 41-yard touchdown pass to Ja'Corey Brooks on third-and-10 put Alabama back on top, 21-17 with 4:44 left.
LSU took a 7-0 lead early in the second quarter when Daniels threw a 30-yard touchdown pass to John Emery Jr.
