Derrick Henry is player of week

The skinny: While Alabama’s defense dominated in the Tide’s 30-16 thumping of LSU, six Tide defenders had at least three tackles and none had more than six. It truly was a unit-wide effort. Still, we’re going to single out Lee, who had three stops, a sack and perhaps the … ahem … tide-turning play. He picked off Brandon Harris’ pass on the first play from scrimmage of the second half — it was the first interception throw by LSU all season — and four plays later, the Tide scored to make it 20-10. That TD, basically, ended the game.
