The University of Alabama celebrated its 14th national title with a dominating 21-0 victory over LSU in New Orleans on Jan. 9. It was payback for a 9-6 overtime loss to the Tigers on Nov. 5, the Tide’s only blemish on a 12-1 season. The prospect of playing for a national title appeared grim after the loss to LSU, but the Crimson Tide stayed resilient, won the remaining games on its schedule and earned its spot in the BCS title game. The rematch with LSU was no match at all as the Alabama defense was smothering, holding the Tigers to just 92 total yards and five first downs. The Alabama offense rolled up 384 yards of offense, 21 first downs and converted five field goals and a touchdown to get the shutout.
