I see a lot of low scores predicted for the ‘11 team. The defense was nasty, but the offense blew out everyone except Bama. This year’s defense is nowhere near as good as that Bama defense.
2019 a hard fought 40
2011 a smash mouth 33

After Jefferson went in as starting QB, the offense struggled to score in the 1st half against everybody. Typically the D or special teams provided a spark, including in the SECC.
I see the downvote, so I’ll provide halftime numbers for the games Jefferson started.
Western Kentucky 14-7. Game was tied at 7 until 3:33 left in the half.
The worst Ole Miss team ever 35-3, with 2 defensive TDs and a short field provided by a forced fumble
Arkansas 21-14 with a kick return TD. Arky led 14-0 in the 2nd qtr.
Georgia 7-10 and the only TD was a kick return. UGA blew a couple of chances to open a big halftime lead. Most at the game thought we’d lose at the half.
Bama round 2, 0-6 and didn’t cross the 50
Edit: JJ didn’t start the 1st Bama game so I removed it.

Finally someone with a clue
I’d say more like 31-23 2019 though.
That 2011 secondary and pass rush was light years better than any defense we played this season, including Auburn.
Burrow is playing at another level right now though, so I do think the offense hits 30.
I do think the 11 offense would struggle inside the red zone if we didn’t punch it in on big runs, which this defense has been susceptible to at times.
Ultimately, Burrow would do whatever it took at the end. He is the GOAT after all.

Truth is, if they played 100 times, 2011 team still probably wins at least 40 of them.
Mathieu, much like Burrow, was an absolute game changer. He was good for a turnover per game, basically.
