Since Week 2 of the 1993 season, LSU has been shut out three times in 244 games. All three of those blankings came at the hands of Alabama, took place in the state of Louisiana, and occurred at night. The Tide shut out the Tigers 26-0 in 1996 and 31-0 in 2002, both in Baton Rouge. The third shutout came in the 2012 BCS Championship Game, 21-0 in New Orleans. Dating back to 1975, LSU has been shut out nine times. Seven of those have been in the state of Louisiana (six in Baton Rouge) and four have come at the hands of Alabama.

History shows that the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide, who are coming off a home win against a Top-20 opponent Mississippi State, have a tough test Saturday against another highly ranked opponent in the fifth-ranked LSU Tigers at Tiger Stadium.
The AP No. 1 team has faced a Top-20 opponent on the road the week after a home win against another Top-20 opponent nine previous times. The AP No. 1 team is just 2-7 in those games, including the Crimson Tide, who lost in that situation at South Carolina two years ago.
