How the frick do you know what calls Miles makes and what calls other coaches make? Oh yea, Miles only makes the bad ones, I forgot. How do you know that he didn't override a Stud call for the Mett touchdown to Landry. Oh that's right, you don't. By all means, criticize the poor calls, but don't neglect to give the main credit for where it is due.
I must have made some good points, because I've seriously been attacked. Talk football and give me some facts, not just speculation.

Just want to know what your facts are on your "speculation" that the only calls Miles made on his own were wrong? Unless you are a member of the staff, you have no way of knowing. That's speculation.

1. Bama didn't score
2. They did score in under two minutes
3. Bama didn't score, fumbled and we scored
4. Bama didn't score
I like this response; however, wasting field position is a coaching sin. We beat them last year because we kept them pinned in their end of the field. I've always thought the you should use you aggression to break down the opposing teams defense and not for trick plays. Also, I had already figured out the LSU was going to onside kick and I didn't think it would help.

We dominated the #1 team in the country. There were some calls that the coaching staff,fans, and players would love to have over. There were also some calls(probably over 90%) that were successful. All of this has been discussed at nauseum. Time to move on.

It's all speculation. You don't know what might have happened had Miles not made those calls.
I'll tell you what I saw. I saw three gutsy "Lesticles" calls that didn't work out. I saw those three calls fire up the stadium and the team. That's what I saw.
It's easy critiquing decision makers when you've got 20/20 hindsight. I don't think I'd have the nerve to call those plays Les did. That's why he's the head coach of a top 5 program for the last 10 years and I'm not.
The only thing I'd change, and I say this all the time, is I wouldn't play the prevent defense. I'm sure some number cruncher has run the numbers and statistically it must be the thing to do. But jeez, all the prevent defense seems to do is prevent my team from winning. We clamped down on them the other 58 minutes of the game, why change it? But that's for others to understand.
Me, I'm just damn proud to be a Tiger after Saturday night. The atmosphere and effort were second to none.
