re: Miles record vs. SEC coaching peers

What if he was supposed to lose that game on (1/9) just like Saban was supposed to lose such game on (11/5)? Has anyone thought about how the NCAA has slowly turned CFB into the new WWE...as far as the outcome? Let the game be close but the outcome is determined? Sounds crazy, and strikes a nerve because so many of us love this game so much and can't imagine that. But there was a time when wrestling actually had real winners until there was so much money involved..
Oh and if you think about the "money" involved, how could there not be corruption?

What about the theory that saban got les this job and they had a deal that "if they ever make it to the big game against each other...blah blah blah"

That's the only thing that makes since as to the way LSU handled the NCgame.



I don't really believe these theories but It has crossed my mind, and why not stir the pot?

I do remember a post someone made a day or two after the NC game that said something to the effect that "You would think that JJ has a picture of CLM kissing a goat" or similar.

I felt that way on 1/9 and I still feel that way. There is no excuse for playing someone at QB who has proven many times that he cannot think in a pressure situation! Shep could have done better.

While he had JL and Mett nailed to the bench, he kept JJ in the game

Going into the championship game JJ was 26 for 40, 2 TD and 0 INT, 86 yards rushing in his career against Bama. Lee was 24 for 58, 1 TD and 7 INT, -3 yards rushing.

Well, uhhh, then he should have put Mett in with that porous O-line.
It would have been a really great situation for his first meaningful PT.
Just risk the Mettsiah and 2012 season to injury in a game you're getting manhandled in.
Throw good money after bad.

I never said Les Miles sucks as a coach. I said it was a monumental let down to a great season

No, actually you said it was "wiped out", making the 13 wins and SEC Championship meaningless because you would be exactly as happy with an 0-12 season as the one we had last year since everything we accomplished before the National Championship Game was "wiped out" by that loss. THAT is why people consider you (and similar fans) idiotic, spoiled, childish, ignorant and completely devoid of sense, perspective and rationality.

The loss in the title game sucked.Still cant take away a great season they had with really not great qb play.We have had some bad luck recruiting the qb position in the past few years and it caught up with us last year.We all knew we were limited to what we could do and saban being the good coach he is made us pay.The problem has been solved.

Comparing SEC coaches record at current school to LES freakin MILES (Posted on 7/23/12 at 10:57 a.m.)

Compared to Les Miles this is what current SEC coaches would need to achieve at their CURRENT school to match his overall record:

Les Miles is 75-18 at LSU. This, during the most competitive years in SEC history. This while being the ONLY team that played the other THREE dominant programs in the league during that time, (Florida, Alabama and Auburn) EVERY YEAR.

Nick Saban needs to go 20-6 to equal Les’s record in his first 93 games. My guess is that he does this, but it gives us an idea of the excellence in these numbers. (I humbly make note of January scoreboard before any Gump begin to hyperventilate, as well as 3-3 in head to head matchups).

Arkansas, Texas A &M and Ole Miss are not in this discussion.

Dan Mullen at Mississippi State would need to go 54-1 to equal Les Miles record at LSU.

Gene Chizek at Auburn would need to go 45-8 to equal Les Mile record at LSU.

Will Muschamp at Florida would need to go 68-12 to equal Les Miles record at LSU.

Mark Richt Georgia was 72-21 through 93 games at Georgia, and then tanked the next year .

Steve Spurrier at USC would need to magically erase 17 losses and somehow win 20 straight games to equal Les Miles record at LSU.

Derek Dooley at Tennessee would need to go 64-4 to equal Les Miles record at LSU.

Gary Pinkel was 56-37 through 93 games at Mizzou. A swing of 18 games.

James Franklin at Vandy needs to go 68-11 to equal Les Miles record at LSU.

Joker Phillips need to go 64-4 to catch up with The Hat.

Not bad considering what a damn strong football program we have. Our best days are still ahead of us.Keep doing what you are doing Les, you loveable mad genius !

Do I aggravate you Gray?
Or does everyone who cares to be opinionated about Miles aggravate you?

Looking at your post history reminds me of my grandfather. Trying to right the world as he sees it. I see a bitter man in your posts.

I can answer any question u ask, but the fact you prefer to be a dick about my opinion and the fact it seems to piss u off, makes it enjoyable to some level.

Do people have opinions in Gray-land?

He doesn't handle pressure situations well. I have seen him get obviously confused when games are close.

Did you watch any games in 2007???

The entire season was a pressure cooker.

Genius coach Irvin Meyers has been more befuddled and confused in the close ones than Miles has. (LSU/UF '05,'07,'10).

. I don't think yo could do better at this time. You might find equivalent to him but better, I don't think so. And he has shown his loyalty to LSU twice. I think he deserves, based on that and his performance to have all Tiger fans behind him.
