Similar to 1/9 but we score a bit more, LSU breaks off a big play. I'll say 30-6 Bama


30 pts. for Bama is not at all similar to 1/9. Jesus you people have mythologized that game as some sort of epic beat down when the truth is it was a chip away type of victory.

Hell it was still a two score game in the 4th quarter the one time LSU crossed the 50 with the ball.

There were plays for LSU to make we just didn't make them. Every time we got a positive play, we'd shoot ourselves in the foot with a penalty or stupid mistake. That was 1/9.

Bama's offensive performance was not that great, and they didn't come close to scoring 30.

Not really. I remember Musburger describing it as a "mauling". LSU crossed the 50 once, and Hightower took it away on the next play. 384 yards to 92 yards. 21 1st downs to 5. The final score doesn't properly describe that throttling.

Our offense is much better at getting into the endzone this year.

Bama moved the ball pretty consistently but you're right that the point production was tough to come by. Bama struggled in the red zone last year against a lot of teams but they've improved significantly this year. The only advantage I see LSU having this time is the fact that it's a night game in Death Valley. That'll be worth something.

Bama 21 - LSU 13

30 points is only one more touchdown than on 1/9. Which is what I said.
