None of those questions matter. The only question that matters is whether this team is being all that it can be.

It is not. Not by a long shot. The offense has top ten talent, but bottom third performance.

People are upset with Miles because his offenses always underperform. It is a waste of talent and a waste of the opportunity to win another national championship.

Miles is getting paid $4 mm a year to get his teams to over achieve, not underperform.

Amen...Nick Saban does not have problem winning NC with the same level of talent that LSU recruits.

Did you miss the part about all the injuries, not to mention the WRs aren't top 10 talent by any measure. I have never seen a group of receivers miss more catchable balls. I, for one, am in the camp that believes the offense would be looking a lot different if the receivers weren't killing so many drives with the dropsies! It's not just the drops on 3rd downs, but drops on other downs affect the play calling and put the team in bad down and distance situations.

The Tigers got a taste of their own medicine at Florida losing both the TOP and field position battle only for the defense to be worn out by the end of the game (or Minter being sidelined for a bit). Throw in the strip of the ball from ODB and it's exactly what the Tigers were doing to others last year. Doesn't mean it's the end of the world (season) nor does it mean that Miles' offensive philosophy isn't any good. Eighteen straight regular season wins says otherwise.
