Uh - think what you must to feel better about it but Saban brought LSU 2 National Championships. Miles just happened to be in the right place to get his picture taken with Saban's Crystal the 2nd time.

What a crock of shite. So who gets the blame for the Dolphins going 1-15 the year AFTER Saban left Miami?

I've heard ad nauseum that Miles won with Saban's players. If that is true then it MUST be true that Saban with his predecessor's players.

Bama will not dominate the SEC for years to come. They didn't even dominate this year. They beat LSU in a very close game and got the benefit of a highly controversial play involving Patrick Peterson's interception. Nothing dominant about it. Nor were they dominant against Auburn or Tennessee. They were very, very lucky they didn't get beat.

LSU, Tennessee and Auburn will be on the Bama schedule again next year and the Tigers will get Bama in Tiger Stadium. Not only that, the Tide will have to play Florida during the regular season.

Bama will be competetive again. But anyone who thinks they will dominate the nation's toughest conference for years to come is too stupid to reply to.

And apparently Mike Shula brought Bama their invite to play in the NC game this year?

Miles took over in 2005 implemented his scheme with Pelini's defense and won his own NC after 3 years. Saban only chose a handful of players that had an impact that season. Byrd was one of the best receivers and Miles recruited him. Freshman didn't learn much under Saban to where it would impact them 3 year out. Jean-Francois was recruited by Miles and made key plays in the SECCG and NC game in winning. Chad Jones played frequently in diffent situations and so did Harry Coleman. It is Miles' NC team whether you like it or not.
