#2 LSU went to Tuscaloosa to take on a team they had not beaten in 9 tries, Nick Saban’s #3 Alabama Crimson Tide. Shockingly it was Saban’s Tide that made mistakes & Ed Oregeon’s Tigers that capitalized & won the game 46-41.
Bama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa played in his first action since ankle surgery & fumbled on the opening possession. LSU QB Joe Burrow started the game sharp & opened the scoring in this barn burner.
Perfect start for #LSU. Burrow was sharp on the TD drive. #LSUvsBAMA #Bamapic.twitter.com/f3G8gXP2i8
