Les is who I thought he was

In my opinion, Les Miles proved again last night that nearly every game of every season is going to be very exciting as a Tiger fan. Les has a style of coaching that lends itself to close endings for nearly every game. For example, Les sits on the ball after the Mathieu fumble recovery at the end of the first half, or, as Charles Hannigriff stated last night, running the football on 15 out of 16 first down plays following the interception. So no, we will probably never "go for the jugular" under Les but his conservative style leads to being in nearly every game. We will inevitably win some and lose some of these games.

When you think about it, all of this positiger/negatiger crap needs to stop. Les deserved every bit of criticism that he and his staff received last week, and he deserves every bit of positivity that he will receive this week. He gets his guys to give 110% and that is a great quality in a coach. I, for one, am going to enjoy this ride over the next six weeks trying to enjoy what is sure to be many more close games.
