Bama Wins in OT

Alabama took an overtime victory in Baton Rouge against #15 LSU to clinch the SEC Western division.

LSU led the Tide at the end of the 1st quarter 14-7; it was the only time this season that Alabama was down at the end of the 1st. Alabama launched a comeback that saw them up by 7 in the 4th quarter. LSU then rallied to tied the game.

Kicker L. Tiffin had his last-second field goal blocked to send the game into overtime.

The Tide defense held LSU to no score on their first possession in overtime. Quarterback J.P. Wilson then punched in a touchdown to end the game.

Alabama will have to face Mississippi State and Auburn before taking on Florida in the SEC Championship game.
