Didn't he quit after we defeated him? I'm sure he didn't comment on that.

that dont bother me. that is good old fashion trash talk. and hes as good as anyone at it. it's all in fun, and all about rivalries we had with him.
i would listen to him all day long before i have to stomach listening to Nick Saban talk about the "process".

Poor Spurrier. He went 0-4 against Miles. Must chap his arse to know he lost that much to a coach like Miles.

I guess we'll never be as successful as South Carolina.

were you even alive during the 90s? Spurrier absolutely dominated the SEC (6 conference championships in 12 years, 8 East titles, 87-12 in the SEC) and revolutionized the game with his Fun n Gun offense.

Well if he had recruited better players at USCe, LSU might not made his arse quit in mid-season.

From 2000 - 2016 LSU is 168 - 52. In the 21 century LSU has won 76% of it's games. Our worst record during this time has been 8-5, which we finished 3 times. 2002, 2008 and 2014. Six of those seasons we had 2 or less losses. Also, 2 national championships. A lot of programs would love to have that resume.

Miles and Cameron went 11-11 in the SECW Division with the #2 ranked talent. No Top 10 finishes in 5 years. They won less than 60% of their SEC Conference Games. They longer he stayed the worse he got. The SEC is ALA and everyone else.

I have always enjoyed hearing him speak. Brutally honest even on his own teams. No outjawin' that dude.

LSU, for 5 yrs, under-performed expectations with the biggest gap between Roster Talent (2016 Top 3, 2nd in SEC) and Won/Loss record. Not one Top 10 finish or premier Bowl. USCe averaged 9th in the SEC in Roster Talent.

The USCe game in 2015 is when JD Moore went down 1st QTR. LSU went spread, up-tempo, running 83 plays. It opened up the Offense and Guice, Fournette, and Harris all had a huge game.

Although the SEC gets the most Talent the ACC passed them as the strongest Conference: "How the ACC used coaches, quarterbacks to overtake the SEC in 2016". The ACC had a 10-4 record for the year vs. the SEC -- topped by Clemson over Alabama in the College Football Playoff National Championship -- and won those games by an average of 11.3 points.
