Only a week the Tigers got crushed by the Florida Gators on the road in The Swamp, Zach Mettenberger and his offensive line had plenty to prove not only to Les Miles and Tiger fans, but perhaps the national media.

In this close 23-21 victory, this just wasn't a victory in the standings, but perhaps a moral victory that gives LSU confidence before their biggest test against Alabama in two weeks.
