What was the answer to Buddy Songy's question that Les Miles is the only coach to do [what?] in the SEC? Today's show.

Saban's beaten at least 6 that I can think of off the top of my head: Miles, Myer, Fulmer, Stoops, Spurrier, and Paterno.

Per lsusports.net

quote:

In addition to his 51 victories, some other notable accomplishments during his first five years with the Tigers include: only coach in LSU history to beat Auburn, Florida and Alabama in same season - and he's done it twice; only first-year coach in SEC history to lead team to league's title game; nine wins over coaches who have won national titles; and the only coach in LSU history to lead Tigers to three-straight top-five final rankings.


New question:

Who are the nine coaches?

The answer was that he was the only SEC first year coach to take his team to the SEC championship game

I don't think that means there were nine different coaches, but nine victories over coaches who have won the national title.

It's not 9 coaches, it's 9 wins over 6 (i think) coaches.

Even though I don't think all 9 wins came against every coach after they had won a national title. LSU might have retro-counted that number.

Meyer('05 & '07), Saban('07), Fulmer('06 &'07), Spurrier('07), Tressel('07), Coker('05)


That's 8.... to my knowledge, we've never played USC, Texas, or Oklahoma. So unless they're counting Butch Davis' 2000 Miami team....

He beat Stoops twice: '01 and '02.

I guess they aren't counting that.

It'd be interesting to look at those numbers through his entire career. Did he ever beat Mack Brown?

I guess the 2008 South Carolina game never happened.

I noted it. Didn't feel the need to acknowledge it in the thread.

You win.
