For instance - in 1979 Tulane went 9-3 (similar to a 10+ win season these days) and went toe-to-toe with Penn state in a bowl game after playing:
Tulane beat LSU in 1973 but as it happens we are discussing the 1960s in this thread - exactly the time Tulane deemphasized athletics and left the SEC.
Try to stay on topic.

How did their schedule measure up that year? FURTHER...I shouldn't have to state something so obvious but uhh...errrrr....Miles wasn't coaching LSU in 1998 and we didn't play Tulane that year.
My point is obvious - the Tulane program was more adept at playing BIG teams and was more respected, better recruited then. Tulane from 60's - 70's was a much better football program than today's.
Try and keep up.

Don't have time to look it up but certainly Miles has far more wins in 9 and a third seasons than CM had in 10 full. Also, reasonably certain that CM had only two 1-loss seasons; '62 and '69 so I believe your figures for year 10 are wrong.

Why don't people understand this?!@# and those 2 extra games are USUALLY trash teams...
You have to look at SEC record games to compare.

All that to throw in a cheap Saban stat.
2/10
2/10

You need to stop. Really. Its embarassing.
LSU has not beaten Tulane 30 times in their history
LSU has not beaten Rice 18 times in their history
Comparing either program to NMst, ULM, NTst, Towson, Kent St, Idaho is ignorant

Can you compare their records against the SEC?
Miles has lost 21 SEC games thru 10 years
Cholly Mac only 18
And Miles could lose maybe 6 more this year so . . .

The logic you people use amazes me. More games means more chances to win OR LOSE! Win % is the definitive stat.
Once again, please stop
A team is ranked based on games they lose. Simple fact
i.e. The #10 ranked team doesnt move up because they beat Ga Southern badly, they only move up to #8 because 2 teams ahead of them lost. Otherwise they remain at #10
Losses determine a teams worth. As it should
