Is Miles really that great historically in terms of losses per year?
quote:


People like to tout that Miles has six 10-win seasons and LSU only had 13 or so prior to his arrival. This is not an accurate measuring stick b/c for decades LSU only played 10 or fewer games and the schedules of the last 20 yrs or so are stacked with 3 automatic wins.



So 11-2 seasons are terrible? Saban only had one season here with fewer than two losses.

Inaccurate. Actually, Saban only had 'ONE' season in his five seasons at LSU where he lost less than THREE games (2003 / 13-1). He lost 4 in 2000, 3 in 2001, 5 in 2002, 4 in 2004....

Miles has beaten more Top 25 teams than any other SEC coach since 2006 - 25.

Miles is the second winningest CFB coach in the nation since 2005.

Miles has lost 3 Saturday night games in Death Valley: Ole Miss in 2008, #1 Florida in 2009 and #1 Bama in 2012.

(2005 Tennessee was on a Monday Night, 2007 Arkansas was a day game that went into OT, 2008 Alabama was a day game that went into OT.)

In all, Miles has lost 7 home games in 9 years.
