Alabama football to honor 2011 national championship team versus LSU

We are in for a special weekend at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Alabama football takes on LSU at 6 p.m. on ESPN. Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide are making a push for a national championship coming off a bye week. The Tigers (4-4) look to give Alabama a competitive game, but the Tide will have support from a former national champion on its sideline. On Saturday, Alabama will honor its 2011 BCS national title team.

It was Saban’s second national championship team in Tuscaloosa.

The group was dominant on defense, leading the nation in all five major categories.
