Fact is we've lost past 3 to alabama.
Fact is alabama has won 3 out of past 4 NCs and pretty good odds of making it 4 in arow and 4 outa last 5.
Fact is Alabama embarrassed LSU in the second half of the most recent matchup.
Fact is Nick saban and staff is doing pretty good job coming to Louisiana and getting players they want.

jesus christ....you are fricking obsessed with alabama.

wtf are you talking about? i don't equate my happiness with what bama has or has not accomplished.

it is a shame that your hatred for Miles won't allow you to acknowledge LSUs accomplishments the last 9 years. so sad

Ok, here's what seems to be the issue- Alabama is REALLY FRICKING GOOD right now.

I'm not sure how changing OUR coach is supposed to hurt Saban over there; do the 2 guys share some clause in their contract or something? If Les goes, so does Nick?

Otherwise, it won't matter. Urban Meyer leaving Florida didn't hurt Bama, it only left Florida in shambles. Petrino getting fired didn't hurt Bama, it only left Arkansas in shambles. Swapping out Chizik for Malzahn might help Auburn, but I bet they still get skull-fricked next week. Why? Because Bama's GOOD.

Well, some kids are always going to go to whatever hot team there is. They want to be frontrunners, and they want to win titles. If they like basketball, they probably pull for Duke or Kentucky... or more probably LeBron (not even his actual team, just LBJ). That's how they roll. Others just want to get away from the family and make it on their own.

It doesn't help when so many locals here still seem to bash Miles and worship Saban all the time, you're basically pointing out which coach and team to go play for. Think that's an exaggeration? I was sitting at my son's lacrosse game last fall, and listened to some loud a-hole dads bitch about things. Central, my son's team, was beating the home team, Dutchtown, and a few of these guys were boiling over about it. Amazingly, somehow they all just started ranting about how good Saban was (I don't know, maybe they didn't like their lacrosse coach), and how Miles sucked. Thought a couple of them were gonna stroke out, they were so fired up about it. Red-faced and veins poking out. Other than being a hysterically funny WTF moment, it just highlighted how some people still haven't gotten over the fact that Saban left. Also made me understand how a Dutchtown player might pick Alabama over LSU

Who gives a frick who NS was referring to. You Saban lovers will never get over him leaving you broken hearted. Funny thing is he wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.

Nick was a good coach here, but he left you nine years ago. Move on, please, he doesn't love you.

Thankfully, Les came in and LSU never missed a beat. Ask Florida how important that is to sustaining your program at a high level.

The thing with Miles is his teams are always undisciplined on offense. We shot ourselves in the foot so often. Even in our last game the Offense self destructed in the red zone repeataly. This happens every year. Miles didn't have us ready for Ole Miss this year players dont get the message. He just doesn't work hard enough to win a championship. Being close every year and not being able to finish the deal frustrates the hell out of me. This year we lost 2 games by 6 points that we were out coached in both. While Miles treats this job like a 9 to 5 you know who works a double every day. Miles is being out worked- And if he doesn't start working overtime we will be a cotton bowl team for the remainder of his time here

The dumbassery is strong in this thread. I feel sorry for the families of some of you guys. You must be the unhappiest MFers on earth.

I'm in the group who didn't want him in the first place.....sorry, just wasn't that impressed with 28-21 out of Okie St. and felt we could have gotten someone with more impressive credentials.

What was Jimmy Johnson's record at Okie St before the U hired him? There was more to the hire than the record alone.
