The NEGATIGERS started seriously calling for the firing of Les Miles after the Tennessee game in 2005. I remember it well. Les went on to win one national title, and many people would say two. The NEGATIGERS were definitely WRONG!!

I allowed for that in my argument. I don't agree that falling backwards into the only 2-loss title run in history constitutes "negatigers were definitely wrong". The argument is not that Les was 100% incompetent and deserves zero credit. To the contrary - he was an amiable ambassador for the Program and the School with a lot of positive accomplishments.

But the same Positigers who were happy to promote the idea that Saban wasn't very good because Miles had early success against him (even as Saban was only rebuilding the program at Bama) are the same Positigers who were unwilling to admit that Saban had effectively exposed all the terminal weaknesses of Miles' approach. Can't have it both ways.

And yet a 3 loss sec title is touted.
Do you know how many national titles saban wouldve won at lsu if you gave him a national title for every 2 loss or less season at lsu? Still just one.

As a NEGATIGER since 2005, a person cannot now claim to be right. The NEGATIGERS ate crow for most of TEN YEARS!!! It does not matter what you think about 2007, he has the crystal ball !
