Really?

Let's take a look at 2003: Alabama was down,
Auburn was down, Florida was down, Arkansas was down, Ole Miss, UK and Vandy and Miss. St. were well Ole Miss, UK, Vandy and UK, and South Carolina was down. UGA and Tenn. were the class of the East and LSU the class of the West.

In every championship year, there is an element of luck that the champion enjoys. In 2003 the SEC West traditional powers being down was a fortunate turn of events for LSU.

Now, don't get me wrong, to this day this is still my personal favorite LSU team. Love the tenacity of that DL.

Do you think any coach (take your pick) will ever win a NC at Oklahoma State?

I think you missed my point. At that time (2000-2003), Saban was in a tougher conference than Miles and won a NC.

You sure hit that one on the head. Miles 2 loss NC season in 2007 is one of the most disputed in history. His only championship was a season where he cratered at the end with 2 shitty losses. Had to have an almost miraculous series of events happen to climb back in...and it happened. You want to talk about "element of luck".

And you actually want to dispute Saban's 2003 NC? You're not a smart person.
