Match Recap: Alabama vs. LSU 42-28

Sport by : (PRESSBEE) -

Alabama’s dreams of another SEC championship and a spot in the College Football Playoff are still alive.

The Crimson Tide defeated rival LSU 42-28 Saturday night at Bryant-Denny Stadium, getting some revenge for last year’s defeat while staying on the inside track in the race for the SEC West title.  

This one started as a shootout, but the Tide took control down the stretch to put the Tigers away.

Crimson Tide QB Jalen Milroe was brilliant, throwing for 219 yards and rushing 20 times for 155 yards. He set an Alabama quarterback record with four rushing touchdowns.

if Alabama can hold serve at home and get revenge for last season's 32-31 overtime loss to the Tigers, it will be one step closer to clinching the division and potentially reaching the College Football Playoff. These teams have played some thrilling games over the years, and it's only fitting that the stakes are so high for the last meeting before the SEC scraps its divisional format for 2024 with the additions of Oklahoma and Texas.

Tennessee during their last game before a bye in Week 9. The Tigers also enter off a bye and should be feeling confident after amassing 159 points during a three-game winning streak that has helped resurrect their conference title hopes.

Nick Saban spoke at halftime on the Crimson Tide Sports Network broadcast, he expressed frustration with the way Daniels killed UA on scrambles and that Alabama's spies couldn't get Daniels on the ground. That improved somewhat in the second half. Daniels didn't do near as much damage on the ground after the break, even before leaving after a big hit put him concussion protocol.

Throughout the first half, Daniels simply refused to go down. His runs kept multiple LSU drives alive, and he went to the halftime break with 137 rushing yards and a touchdown, one that tied the game at 21 before the half. Daniels saw his night end following a hit by Dallas Turner in the 4th quarter.
