re: Damn near forgot what we did to Bama last year.

lsu just did NOT blitz before that game. they looked completely different. I think they blitzed something like 65% of the plays vs alabama

6-5 Auburn then essentially replicated that approach and held Alabama to 3 points until a last minute drive got the game to OT. The irony is in BOTH games LSU's QBs from the 2020 season were the weak links wasting those great defensive performances.

Alabama went from averaging nearly 43 ppg in its 5 prior SEC games plus Miami, to scoring 20 and 10 (in regulation) vs. LSU and Auburn.
