I've seen this phrase thrown out a lot on this board in regards to Les Miles' 2-Loss national championship team, a team that was stacked to the gills with Saban talent and had a very navigable schedule.

I'm curious as to how many here believe that you could have equaled or bettered Les' 2-Loss season?

What would your record have been?

I could win a Super Bowl with Saban's players.




Wait............no I couldn't. Not even Saban could.

I've only actually met one Mizzou fan, because you lot really aren't SEC. So tell me, are people in Missouri still as pissed off and sore about 2007 as Georgia fans are?

I would be spending way more time working with the cheerleaders than I should, so my team would suck balls. (which is what I would be trying to get the female cheerleaders......) (A&M fans, you can have the male cheerleaders)

Houston Nutt could have equaled or bettered Les's 2-loss season.

With the team he had that year it was a very poor coaching job, arguably one of his worst in BR, to lose two games.

I could have beaten Oklahoma last season with Saban's players.

Well, LSU did face 9 bowl teams on that schedule. They started off by demolishing two bowl teams (one of them being VT who was #9 and ended up in the top 10 in the final poll). They beat 5 teams in the final top 15. That's strong. As someone mentioned, LSU beat Tennessee in the SECCG with the backup QB due to Flynn being unable to play. Dorsey was also out for most of that game as well.

UK had about their best season ever, so that loss in triple OT on the road wasn't that big of a deal. They had already knocked off a top-10 team when they played us and had been ranked in the top 10 at one point. Plus, LSU teams have had an issue with falling asleep against UK teams at UK at times.

The Arkansas loss in triple OT at home was inexcusable. But other than that, they took care of business.

Anyway, with all that said, I wouldn't gone 14-0. I'm undefeated every year though so it's not fair to compare others to me.
