Do the pumpers love Les if Pittsburgh doesn't upset WVU in '07? All I want to know.

Legit question

No, not really

Every team, every year, gets luck

Stupid to think they don't

No. He wouldn't have had his contract restructured last year and would be on the hot seat. Going 6-6 would get him fired.

Why wouldn't we? We still would have won the SEC and finished 12-2 after smoking Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl with two 3OT losses.

Great season even if we don't get into BCSCG just like 03 would have still been a great 13-1 SECChamp season even if we don't squeak past USC because Syracuse and Hawaii won or whatever luck happened to get us in that time.


The more interesting question is would Miles bashers hate him as much if Pitt doesn't beat WV?

Think about it. LSU fans became completely unreasonable due to winning 2 NCs in 5 years after not winning 1 in almost 50. Hell, we'd only won the SEC twice in 20 years before 2007.

If LSU fans don't get spoiled and greedy and assume NCs come easy and we're a program that is a lock to get one every few years, the anti-Miles crazies may never have built LSU in their minds into something it isn't and never has been.

Legit question.


Also, would they hate him as much if we'd lost the GOTC instead of upsetting a team that was better than us on the road so that 1/9 would have never happened?

Finish 12-1 smoking Michigan in the Sugar Bowl with only an OT road loss to eventual BCS Champs? Not a bad final chapter in the Lee/JJ chapter.

Legit question.


What if Michael Ford's toenail doesn't hit the sideline on the way to the end zone in OT?

What if OKst K hooks that kick an inch to the left against Iowa St (if he even missed it at all)?

What if that OKSt plane doesn't crash a day before the Iowa St game?

Legit questions.


What if Auburn doesn't pay off the refs in 2006?

What if Katrina and Rita didn't destroy our state and LSU's schedule in 2005?

Legit.


People always say Miles is lucky. I think he's the most unlucky poor bastard in all of college football.

Think about it this way, what if Oklahoma St didn't lose?

What if we got those two yards for a first down in 2012 that would have ended Bama's season?

You say one thing would have changed our pumpers on Miles, but how about those two things I said? We win the West in 2012 and beat Okie St in 2011. Miles is then seen as a coach who won 4 division titles in the toughest division in the country. Along with two National championships.

Neither things happened, so 2 by bring it up?

Irrelevant. We LSU fans use things that actually happen to craft our opinions. You Negatigers actually have to avoid Les' win-loss record like the plague and ask "what if?" to try to make your shitty points.

We count the wins. You play make-believe.
