As others have said, the game against South Carolina in 2010 was the last time Alabama just got beat badly for 4 quarters, very strange game, score was closer than the game actually went.

I've been following Alabama football for over 25 years and I can count the huge blowouts (final score wise) on one hand just about.

Alabama very rarely gets blown out. Even the shitty teams that went like 3-9 and 4-9 still managed to keep almost all the losses very close.

The biggest huge blowouts I can remember

At the end of the 90 season Louisville killed us bad in a bowl game.
In 91 Florida drubbed us badly (only loss of the season).
In 95 Tennessee demolished us.
In 98 Arkansas beat us bad, as did Va Tech in a bowl game.
In 2003 LSU beat us quite badly and we kicked a FG with almost no time left to avoid being shut out.

Outside of that very few huge blowouts.

Shula teams were very good at scoring points in garbage time of soon to be blowouts to make the game look more competitive than they were though.

People remember the Utah game poorly. They came out on fire and opened up a quick 21-0 lead but for the next 2 quarters Alabama controlled the game and got it back to 21-17 with a quarter to go, most people still though Bama would win at that point, Utah then had a great 4th quarter to put it away.
