Alabama vs LSU ended with the Tide on top, but what does it mean for Alabama football moving forward?
Saturday night the fourth ranked Alabama Crimson Tide (8-1) took the driver’s seat in the SEC West race with a dominant performance over the second ranked LSU Tigers (7-1) 30-16 in front of more than 100,000 fans in the jam packed Bryant-Denny Stadium. The Tide were led by a suffocating defense and a powerful running game. Derrick Henry made his presence known in the now wide open Heisman race by rushing for more than 200 yards and 3 TDs while the Alabama defense held Heisman front runner Leonard Fournette to just 31 yards on 19 carries in the game.
