Looking back on that game you realize the huge upset was more due to undeserved medial hype and favorable circumstances for LSU to pull off the upset. Alabama was highly ranked because they were the defending champs. However, they were probably overrated because to that point they had not been great, at all. Their schedule was awful and they tied the only decent team they played ahead of LSU (Tennessee). Jay Barker was hurt and Alabama had to go with their backup, and eventually their do-everything WR at QB to even have much of a pulse offensively.
Now, it's not like LSU was worth a shite going into that game (3-5) so it was still a big upset. But that Bama team wasn't great. They lost to Auburn and Florida following the LSU game.

That game probably gave us Curley Hallman for one more year.
