re: Since Les has been here, how many times has LSU not been ready to play Bama?

Les is one of the few coaches that tells his team that certain games are bigger than others. People wonder why we come out flat to NWST, Towson, Furman, etc. The team takes on the personality of their head coach. There is reason Saban's teams play like machines. He will still lose it even up 40 points if a player isn't executing. Miles comments about our first half dumpster fire "back end looked like it should." It is just a difference in approach.
