How many of Les' 17 losses were due to coaching?

Only 5 to me.
Tennessee in '05
Kentucky and Arkansas in '07
Ole Miss in '09
Arkansas in '10
Seems most "fans" have a problem with the wins - ugly, not by enough, lucky.

Definitely 2006 Auburn and 2008 Arkansas.

I'm not sure how Arkansas 10 was a badly coached game. One player seemed to cost us that game with his horrible coverage or lack of coverage on two key plays.

Auburn and Florida '06 both were a close combination of coaching and officiating.

you bring up a valid point
too much is made of Les' game management issues- imo a lot of it falls on the the qb
plus, you have got to think that he has improved in that area and learned from his mistakes

Most of the negative fans just keep saying that it will catch up to us eventually or they actually think we are so much more talented than everyone else in the SEC. False on both counts. For all of Miles clock management issues we still win those situations more than lose them and we were not more talented than Florida or Alabama last year and Auburn had one of the best college players ever this season.

I think the issue is that all 92k in the stands have moments in the games where they feel they know more about what to do than Miles.
Ever watch a Dale Brown coached basketball game? It is the same frustration.

Florida in '06 was Jamarcus Russell and a horrible call.
Auburn in '06 was definitely coaching.
But, this is a stupid argument. How many of Saban's losses were coaching? Where is the perfect coach? Belichek just lost to Rex Ryan and the Jets. He got outcoached. Who doesn't from time to time?

Why would we assume this? For the past three seasons, we've witnessed total ineptitude at the QB position. I see little reason for optimism, because Jefferson will more than likely start next year.

This years Arkansas game wasnt becasue of the coaching. Hatcher blew that game for us by playing too aggresive.

It really pisses you off that Miles won 11 games this year doesn't it?

It's football. The best team on paper doesn't always win.
For Example: Oklahoma in Bowl Games.

I think it is the number of close wins that did not need to be close, ie Troy, etc, that are just as much as the losses themselves...just sayin

All of them. If a player made a mistake that cost LSU a game it was because the wrong player was recruited, or that the wrong player was in the game and that a much better was on the bench or that the dumb coaches had the wrong scheme or that the stupid coaches called the wrong play. DUH.

Where does the 2008 Ole Miss game stand?
I know I was real depressed watching that team go up 21-3 on us like it was nothing before finishing us off.

No argument. Just wondered how many losses people thought were due to coaching. I think being out coached in only 5 of 17 over 6 years is pretty good.

Actually, I would argue the better team won in each of OU's 5 BCS bowl loses.
