re: Should LSU not get it done this year is Miles' job in jeopardy? Antiprophet!

I think Pax LSU might be a bit of a stretch even if we had beaten Bama every year Saban has been there.

It's not like Bama is the only team we've lost to since 2011.

Since winning the natty in 2007, LSU has lost 3 or more games in every season other than 2010 and 2011.

If Miles were to be on the hot seat, it would have more to do with just losing to Bama. Cholly Mac is remembered for losing to Bama every year but he lost a lot of other games and that's what got him run out of town.

I think Miles is much better than Cholly Mac. He truly is the best coach we've had that stayed and didn't bolt (Dietzel, Saban, Arnsparger).

It's way premature to speculate right now though. This year's team is definitely capable of making quite a run. Bama is the biggest hurdle, for sure, but there are a lot more land mines in November and beyond. Buga is definitely something special. I think we beat Bama this year. It's really just a matter of what excuse Bama fans will use for losing this time.
