re: Can this team matchup in the trenches against the likes of Alabama?

Has LSU been able to matchup in the trenches the last five years?

The answer is NO

2011: Yes and no Beat them @Bama and then got our arse kicked in the NC

2012: Yes. Had the lead in the final minute and blew it

2013: No. They kicked our arse

2014: Yes. We had them beat, and once again our defense blew it in the last minute with some help from the officials

2015: No. They kicked our arse

So yes, we have been able to match them in the trenches in the last 5 years. Just not consistently.
