LSU under Les Miles with extra time to prepare

This is a note to the Oregon fans who think that their coach is so smart, therefore all the prep time will be to their benefit.
2005-2010 Record with extra time to prep (this counts season openers, games after bye-weeks, and bowl games): 16-3
Losses -- 2005 vs Tenn at home (we all love to re-live that one), 2008 @ UF (this one is fun to re-live too), and 2010 Cap One Bowl. That's it.
LSU is 6-0 in season openers under Miles, as well 7-2 in neutral site games (1-1 SECCG, 5-1 bowls, 1-0 other).
LSU's average score in these 19 games is 34-19.
LSU is 11-1 against non-conference teams in these extra-prep games. The average score in those games is 37-15.
Interesting note: LSU has opened the season away from Tiger Stadium for all but 2 seasons in 7 years (counting 2011).
Bring it, Duckies.

Should add - LSU has only lost 1 game to an non-conference opponent under Les Miles - the 2010 Cap One Bowl versus Penn State.

Good post. Nice breakdown.

Some of those have been pretty close, with LSU being fortunate to win--Arizona State, Washington, and North Carolina.

I've always said that if we had two weeks between each game we would be undefeated every year.

The health of a football team is imo much bigger factor in regards to extra time than any coaching scheme devised over extra week or two of practice.
Execution is key part of football and that falls on players shoulders not coaches.

Nice breakdown but what are about Oregon's HC? What are his numbers? They might be pretty good too.

Coach Miles does have a good record, against good teams, with extra time to prepare. So, how is Oregan's record? Season openers really don't count. They are normally easy games. Bowl games do count.
Look, I'm a numbers guy too. But, I think that the only thing you're going to get from this, is that two very good teams, with two very good coaches, are going to play.
We have GOT to respect Oregon. It's not really hard at all. They have earned it!
I HOPE we win. I THINK we SHOULD win. But, we won't know for a couple of months.
Have fun until then. After all, this is a message board.

I would even put an asterisk next to this one.
