🏈 "The worst thing about writing about the history of LSU football is confronting..."

That's the one I cherish the most. Why doesn't Gary Danielson bring up some of these numbers when he's got nothing to talk about? The 30-year dominance of Alabama in Baton Rouge. From 1970 to 1999, Alabama never lost in Tiger Stadium/Death Valley/Deaf Valley. I read somewhere that Alabama's winning percentage in Tiger stadium is actually higher than LSU.

Which reminds me of what a football prophet who wears a too small hat used to say: " Tiger Stadium, where dreams come to die." He was right, a lot of purple and gold dreams bit the dust in that stadium.

Danielson still to busy giggling over kick 6 .....
It was quite a streak ....... Bama winning at BR and losses at home games...
But the winning record vs lsu is incredible....over 2-1 .....52-25....

Bama's winning percentage in BR is .757. LSU's is .737.

The stat most mentioned with LSU is their winning percentage at night in Death Valley. Those losses are primarily to the Tide. The main issue with their record at night is which teams they are playing at night. When it comes to the marquee match-ups, like Bama, Florida, and Auburn, the majority of the time CBS has those in the afternoon slot. LSU's track record then isn't something to really brag about.

Bama and LSU first played in primetime on CBS in '11 when Bama lost the OT game. Since then...well, you know the record. And, quite frankly, since 2007 (CBS afternoon game) there's been more years where LSU wasn't a national story when the two teams played than years where the game actually had an impact on the SECW.
