Hey Speedy,

Where does MIles' 81.1% winning percentage rank all time in the SEC?

thanks dude.
i still have the others bookmarked!

In addition to everything else, I've always liked the fact that Les has always had outstanding special teams. No one can dispute that. He's used it as a weapon throughout his entire career here.

Think of how many times a special teams play has either turned a game around for us or provided the necessary stamp on a Win.

Two examples from book end years: punt block against Arizona State for TD (I believe it was blocked by Hester) returned by Steltz and in the same game, LSU blocked a field goal and returned for a TD, then the Kickoff return for TD against West Virginia by Claiborne. Fake punts, blocked field goals, kick-off coverage, you name it and LSU has done it with consistency and every unit every year is outstanding.

Les Freakin' Miles!!!

Great Job Speedy ! I like me some Miles but Raising Canes gave me the shites last Saturday night.

I now accept the realization of how lucky LSU fans and administration are to have a quality man like Coach Les Miles represent this fine university. Les keeps it fun and just keeps on winning. 1-09 is gone forever but I know the young men are in good hands with a man who is going to respect his players as if they were his own sons. God bless Les Miles and his family ! Winning 80 % of your ballgames is a bonus !

If he has lost 18, then home and away losses should total 18, right?

3 neutral site losses. 2 bowls and 1 SECCG.

When the Baseball team was introduced at the Washington game Les went over and hugged Maneri. Can you picture our prior coach doing that. The Hat is the best.

have been a fan since the '60s and we have never had a BETTER COACH, INCLUDING SABAN. yes, saban has taken another stride in his career at bama and he is argueably the best in the business now but miles damn sure is better than saban was at LSU.

Those Saban fanboys forget he lost atleast 3 games a year except once.
