Alabama Football: Lessons from the Crimson Tide beatdown of LSU

Derick E. Hingle-USA TODAY Sports

The Alabama football whipping of LSU could not have surprised anyone. Still, there were lessons learned.

Alabama football set a record Saturday night, scoring its most points ever in Tiger Stadium. The previous record was 47 points, set in 1922. Devonta Smith continued to re-write Crimson Tide receiving records, becoming the first Alabama football player to have 200-plus, receiving yards, four times in a career.

The records are nice for players and fans. They are, of course, secondary to winning a Championship. Much was made about the Crimson Tide playing for revenge in the game.
