LSU has some extra motivation as this not-so-fun fact shows

That's pretty surprising.

There are few rivalries as great as LSU-Alabama. It has decided not only SEC West and SEC Conference Champions, but National Championships as well. It's rare that Alabama dominates this matchup like it does others regularly because Les Miles would always pull some trick out of his hat.

This week's game is pretty big for interim head coach Ed Orgeron and for the Tigers. In fact, it would be the first time any of these players would see a win against Alabama since they've been at the school.

Alabama has been on an absolute tear and has beaten everyone its faced pretty handily. With LSU's offense looking refreshed and focus though, this game might present a challenge that the Crimson Tide hasn't seen yet this season.
