Who was the last LSU coach to lose to Alabama 5 times in a row?

I tried finding this but the crawl at the bottom of the screen after the game said that this was the first time LSU lost 5 consecutive games since they lost 11 in a row from 1971-1981.
Cholly Mac right?

Mac lost 9 in a row to Bear

Probably so, and was against Bear Bryant, considered by many to be the best college football coach ever.

You can't say Curley Hallman or Gerry DiNardo.
Or Mike Archer.

Five in a row to a team that consistently has the #1 recruiting class and Nick Saban as a coach. Unforgivable! Fire Miles!
You think the Gumps were yelling "Fire Saban" after he lost his second in a row to Ole Miss this year?

Nick Saban will be at Bama for at least 10 more years, so there's that.

Before Miles, no coach has stayed for more than 5 seasons since Mac.
Since the Dietzel era:
Dietzel was 2-0 against Bama
Mac was 2-14
Stovall was 1-3
Arns was 2-0-1
Archer was 1-3
Curly was 1-4
Dinardo was 1-4
Saban was 4-1
Miles is 5-7
So - to put it another way - no LSU coach (in the history of the program) has beaten Alabama 5 times, other than Miles. LSU is 25-50-5 against Alabama in history - Miles accounts for 20% of those wins and only 14% of those losses.

Of course, but this is much more about the tenure of the coach than anything else.
I'd guess he's beaten a Top 10 ranked BAMA more than any LSU coach as well... He's got 3 wins over a Top 7 BAMA team, two of those being against #2 ranked BAMA teams with one on the road.
Lots of shite to be upset with after Saturday...pinning this stat to him doesn't really add to it.
I mean...Saban beat BAMA 4 times. Of course, each time he did they finished the season unranked. The one loss? a 31-0 prison rape at home to a #10 ranked Dennis Francione team. Talk about humiliating games...
Again...I'm pretty pissed about Saturday, and I think there's plenty to be concerned with (we seem like we're built to beat everyone on our schedule BUT BAMA, where they seem built to beat us) but the fact that he's lost 5 in a row to a team ranked in the Top 5 on average is not all that surprising.
