Historically Les Miles coached LSU teams are one of the least penalized teams in the SEC

We ranked #102/120 in penalties last year averaging 7.23 penalties per game at 57.92 yds per game.
We were tied with Rutgers, who averaged 60 yds per game.
Florida was the most penalized SEC team.
Interestingly enough we would have ranked around the 60s if yds per game were used instead, which to me seems more important than number of penalties. 7 offside penalties are better than 3 personal fouls, for example. I guess context could help as well...

Fewest penalties per game nationally:
2012 LSU: 97th w/ 7.0 penalties per game (13th in SEC)
2011 LSU: 71st w/ 6.2 penalties per game (9th in SEC)
2010 LSU: 65th w/ 6.0 penalties per game (9th in SEC)
2009 LSU: 80th w/ 6.6 penalties per game (9th in SEC)
2008 LSU: 72nd w/ 6.2 penalties per game (9th in SEC)
2007 LSU: 117th w/ 8.4 penalties per game (last in SEC)
2006 LSU: 89th w/ 6.4 penalties per game (11th in SEC)
2005 LSU: 44th w/ 6.0 penalties per game (5th in SEC)
average of 80th nationally and 10th in the SEC. So I fail to see where I'm wrong. As I said, Miles teams are usually undisciplined and commit a lot of penalties.
