Could you give me those statistics in the last 2 years?

Also, I'd like to know. Of all his top 25 opponent wins: How many of them finished the season top 25, and was he ranked higher or lower than them prior to the game?

(IE: Was he #1 playing #25)
Same for top 15, and top 10. Were they top whatever before the game, or at the end of the season? Or do you still think boise state gets credit for beatin virginia tech who was preseason ranked in the top 10?

Also, in most of the big skill positions. How many starters did he play when it was their back ups who are successful in the NFL? Seems to be a common theme in both quarterbacks and running backs.

LSU was amazing when he first got here, but please quit trying to quote statistics that are misleading.

Instead, try to notice trends. That's what's important.

Then again, if Miles started Jarrett Lee, I would give him all the props in the world. However, this bullshite about calling him a genious for his fake field goal in the Florida game, is rediculous. He forgot to tell the most important people that it was going to be a fake, we are very fortunate that it worked out.

Don't get me started on the reason we had to drive down the field in the first place.

Also, UF is not a come from behind victory. They had the lead for a few minutes... we led the whole game... come from behinds insenuate that you were down by more than 1 score. It's amazing how bias is even shown on "objective" statistics.

Please share which backup RBs and QBs are finding great success in the NFL. I am dying to see this list.

Yay for arbitrary end points!

He's 15-4 overall over the last two seasons. I won't break down the stats further than that, except to point out he's 9-3 in SEC play over the past two season as well.

And to whoever that thinks going .500 against the top 10 is average... you are remarkably dishonest or really dumb.

Why would I do that? If your point is for longevity, I should give you the numbers from a six-year career, no? If your point is for recency, then I should give you the numbers from THIS season, no? In fact, the only purpose that this request of yours serves is to make you look like an arse.

If you want to know the answer to this, look it up yourself. But while you're at it, you should probably look at the teams that were unranked when he beat them but finished the season ranked. I don't have that kind of time... and for the record, yes, Boise State does continue to get credit for beating Virginia Tech... a team that will likely win the ACC.

I'd love to see this list.

Russell was a starter for three years, Flynn is destined to be a perennial backup QB. Hester is a starting FB, Keilland is a practice squad RB. Charles Scott is not in the league to my knowledge. You really picked horrible positions to critique, as the most effective RB LSU currently has in the NFL is Kevin Faulk.

FWIW, you prick, LSU was amazing last year and this year. No, they're not flashy, but they win games. If you want flashy, go to the west coast and watch fricking Oregon games.

You want a trend, Miles is 15-4 in his last 19 games, including 9-3 in the SEC... that's nothing to shrug at. The reason we had to drive down the field for the FG? A muffed punt. A kick coverage blunder. An interception. Please explain how ANY of these are MIles' fault.

Also, come from behind means.... you were losing late in the game, and won. It's a pretty simple definition.
