Photo By: LSU ATHLETICS: ELLA HALL In Tuscaloosa on Saturday night, LSU showed fight, but not finish. The Tigers fell 20–9 to No. 4 Alabama inside Bryant-Denny Stadium, a result that reflected two very different trajectories: Alabama’s continued steadiness under Kalen DeBoer, and LSU’s growing pains under interim head coach Frank Wilson in his first game since replacing Brian Kelly. It wasn’t a blowout, but it wasn’t close either. LSU’s defense kept the game respectable. The
