re: More impressive win of the 2011 season?

As an Alabama fan, I've felt like LSU fans have put more of an emphasis on "beating Bama at home" than is warranted. Historically for that series, there's been an edge to the away team in more recent years. Alabama's relationship with BDS is interesting, because its teams have lost their fair share of big games in that venue. I always attributed it to letting the pressure to perform impact the level of play. For that reason, I thought the Superdome venue gave Alabama the edge.

I think that canceling those two out, you then look at the scores. Had the score been ANY closer, maybe they would be comparable wins, but Alabama just utterly dominated. It was far more impressive.
