The reason I brought up Bama not winning the sec west was because LSU played 2 good teams Bama didn't because of it. Then our defense scored a touchdown in the NC game. A DL picking off the heisman winner and taking it to the crib.

Who won the west in 05? Oh yeah.. LSU.

Yeah but the thread is about best defense. Alabama's 2005 version deserves to be in the top 5 talk. I'm willing it say that bunch was better than anything Saban has had so far.

From a statistic standpoint, that could very well be true. The 2005 defense accomplished a lot, considering the anemic offense, and lack of depth.

Tells me 2 things. Lsu's offense scored alot and forced other teams to risk throwing alot more. And secondly, Bama still allowed less points, while not necessarily creating turnovers and scoring.

LSU forced teams to play more aggressively in '03 because LSU's offense just scored a lot of points. I would give the edge to LSU's defense if they had as anemic an offense as Alabama had to work with in '05. That defense was on the field for the vast majority of the time and yet they still refused to yield yardage.
