re: "Tough to beat a team twice"

Saban should be more concerned with the fact that his team has been less impressive in their 3 wins (average margin of victory - 23 points in last 3 games vs. 32.5 in their first 8 )since November 5th while LSU has arguably been better (average margin of victory - 37 points vs. 27.75 in their first 8 games) and against 2 highly ranked teams.

Although, I'm guessing Saban is mostly concerned with how Miles teams are so dominant in bowl games.
