LSU beat him 20-10 in Birmingham 3 weeks later, and I think he announced his retirement following that game.

No he didn't.

On December 15, 1982, Alabama's legendary head coach Paul "Bear" Bryant announced his retirement from coaching. It was on this day that the coach would end his tenure at Alabama after 25 years with the program.

Incorrect. Bryant didn't announce his retirement until December of 1982, about two weeks after the Iron Bowl. The loss to Southern Miss in Bryant-Denny is the straw that broke the camel's back. Losing to Auburn merely reinforced his decision.
