re: If BAMA beats Clemson, then you have to credit MIke Shula!!!

I'll give credit to the Bama fans in this thread. Clearly you have some sense. Actually, most of the Bama fans that come over here have their head on straight, so I have no quarrel with you.

But, living in Alabama, I can tell you that the "Miles is an idiot who only won with Saban's players" is a constant refrain. It is beyond irritating. We win the national championship in Miles' third year and no credit or respect is given. The whole response is, "We've got your coach who put you there and you're headed for the garbage heap, so enjoy this while you can. It will end soon." Did anyone say that about Urban Meyer?

I know it shouldn't matter, but the fact that our old coach went to a rival is bad enough. Add to that the infantile response of rubbing it in our face and claiming all credit in the way that Bama fans do toward LSU, well, that is the source of the hatred that if flowing from Louisiana right now. It all finds it's home in the ignorance that is the Bama nation. If you guys (again, not talking about the Bama posters on this board) would have a little humility and give LSU and Coach Miles a little credit, then you'd see a huge change in attitude toward you.

Case in point: Look at how LSU fans respect Tim Tebow.
