Just how close this series has actually been the last 40 years

That’s what I meant. Math is a challenge

Is that how you got from 39 games to 43?

Now do Saban adjusted wins for each side over the forty years,since Saban to the SEC in 2000 for the head-to-head series, sans 2005 and 2006 while in Miami.

The last 40 years LSU is 23-15-1 against bama with 4 OT losses and one tie.

15-23-1

So in the last FORTY years LSU was 4 overtime wins and a tie away from being 23-20 against Alabama.

Something doesn't add up here. If you are saying LSU could easily have won all those and this would be the record, your math is wrong. Subtract 4 wins from the Bama wins (you missed that on) and subtract the tie and add it to the LSU win total you get 20-19

By my count, it’s 15-24-1 since we beat them in 1982.

Before they won 10 of 11 since the second game of the 2011 season, the series had been 14–14-1 over the preceding 29 meetings….
