I love me some CLM, but some of his decisions really baffle me. If he can't control his team and prepare them for their biggest game of their college career, then maybe he's not good as we think. He was outcoached big time on Monday. He is back in the shadows of Saban once again!

Miles is a good college coach , dont doubt that. Makes some unusal decisions during the game time and does some strange things. however, SAban is a great coach, makes some poor decisions but more times than not , he is going to beat Miles. Sure they are 3 to 3 right now but the first game that we won over in Tuscalossa Saban's first year at 'Bama should never have been that close. The best game for Miles IMO was last year. Saban made poor choices this year in 9 to 6 loss but when it came to nut cutting time you all saw who had their team more prepared. In sum , Miles is a good college football coach, but Saban is a great college football coach.

Coach Miles got his lesson for the day on Monday: Saban is intense, determined, smart and HATES TO frickING LOSE.

So, for next season, Miles knows that he's got to work harder, work smarter and get a little more fire in his belly. If he doesn't like the sound of that then, he can resign.

Did he start hating to lose on 11/6. Or sometime last year. Crazy.

Can't wait to read his book and see what was going through his head that night of the NC game.

JJ is gone. Have you ever heard the saying love is blind. It applies here. There is reason to be optimistic now. There is no one clouding anybody's judgement.

Saban now has 2 NC's and a undefeated season. Oh yea, he also built up both programs to these levels.

Miles is or was known to be a player's coach. A player would run through wall after wall for Miles. With all the transfers and rumors of this teams implosion before or during the game? Whichever one it is, is certainly disturbing. That was his best quality as a head coach. He is definetly a oddball but i could have lived with that if his players buy into what his plan was and play there hearts out. I couldn't even watch some of the plays in the game the first time around and I hate missing plays in the game. I couldn't believe what I was witnessing where this strange viewing came from. I just hope he hasn't lost the players from here on out.

Im just ready to move on like most of the fanbase and a lot of us want some kind of closure as to why things went down like they did.

yea most definetly this I guess we could always process those that show non-improvement or poor attitude from here on out.

It sucks that Im typing this who thought before this game that we would be having these kind of conversations, damn what a surprise life throws at you.

Even if we don't get the closure and explanation directly because we know Les Miles isn't one to induldge the fan.

These Players that represented this damn strong LSU football team deserve one. Why they went away from the practice plays and so on.

He got a lot of splanin' to do. He will have to have a heart to heart meeting with the team laying everything on the table or a huge cancer will set in. This can't be covered up. I would hope that during the debacle, some of the other coaches on the staff were giving some hints at "something needed to change"....

Yeah, Saban was real f'in great when he lost to UAB. What about the Iowa fiasco? Even '03, won the NC but lost to a Florida team that was clearly inferior. He ain't perfect people and he's a pompous arse. Some people will swear he never lost a game when ha coached at LSU. Hell, even DiNardo beat his arse.

I dont put the UAB loss on Saban, Go back and look at the stats, I believe we had like 5 turnovers in that game and I will give you the Iowa game but I think he had already checked out. Every stop Saban makes he gets better and better. The bottom line miles is good , Saban is great, I hope things change in the future and would think that we will get them in Tiger Stadium . Again JMO when it comes to nut cutting time like this past Monday night Saban will beat us more times than not.
