If anyone thinks Miles is on par with Saban and we are equal talent wise with BAMA, then yes the program has underachieved because they are finding ways to win BCS titles and we are not
let me start by saying I love les as a coach..... but he has let this team down by not having a better passing game (hopefully that will change)....the 2nd thing I don't care for is that clm does not try and run up the score or try to embarrass anyone and I think the team feeds off of that mentality....

Let me see if I understand you:
You don't like that Les Miles displays good sportsmanship?
That sir says volumes about your character.

Good teams do, but GREAT teams don't.

Lets switch schedule the past five years and throw a mulligan in there for good measure....

What do you think LSU's accomplishments would look like today?

Of course they have. The reason is Les.

In the Miles era, there have only been a handful of games where LSU has """""seriously""""" underachieved:

* 2005 SECCG loss to Georgia. (LSU had played 12 CONSECUTIVE weeks without a bye.)
* 2008 Bad losses to Florida, Ole Miss, Georgia, and Arkansas (the latter 2 we could have won.)
Comeback win vs Troy.
* 2011 BCSNCG vs Bama Jan. '12
* 2012 Towson game
* 2012 Chicken Bowl vs Clemson


We have """somewhat""" underachieved in a handful of others:
2005 Tennessee, 2006 Fla and Auburn, 2007 Kentucky, 2009 Penn State, 2010 Arkansas, 2012 Florida....
