LSU defensive back Dwayne Thomas was very confident heading into Alabama's matchup with LSU saying the Tigers were going to 'dominate' the Tide.

Well so much for that.
The Alabama defense once again completely owned the LSU offense and once again the Tide made Leonard Fournette look like a completely average running back.
One of the great defensive performances in recent college football history. Bama held LSU to one first down during the final 2-plus quarters

The last three times LSU has been shut out at home have all been against Alabama.

Nick Saban: I'm awful proud of the way competed. Their defense played really really well.

The LSU offensive numbers from Saturday's 10-0 win by Alabama are staggering. The Tigers threw for only 92 yards and rushed for just 33, that's 125 total yards of offense. The Tide also amassed 5 sacks and poor LSU QB Danny Etling seemed to be getting knocked down constantly. Alabama's defense was an absolute machine once again when it matter the most.
AT least LSU held the Alabama defense to zero points.
