Curious why Miles would change Hotels (LSU stayed at same NOLA Hotel for the previous two Championships) for another? Saban in turned booked the "Lucky" hotel when Miles chose another.

I'm sure Saban is loving this considering how supersticious he his. That said, Tigers are legit and Saban will need more than good vibes to win this game.

I believe the hotels are determined by the Sugar Bowl Committee. Seems like the Hilton gets the higher ranked team and the Marriott gets the lower ranked team.

On our previous trips to BCSCG in NOLA, we were ranked #2. This time we're ranked #1.

Hotels are booked by the Sugar Bowl Comittee.

Miles obviously doesn't want there to be any doubt when we beat them.

Yea, we stayed there in 2006/2007 when we were seeded higher than Notre Dame.

2004 and 2008 we were #2 seed.

Hotel is decided by the team ranking.

Because it has no impact on the game itself.

Didn't I see CLM holding the crystal ball on the balcony of the Sonesta after the BCS NCG in 2008?
