Miles is still not getting credit for his BCS Championship. Eleven out of the Top 16 haven't won anything. Pretty funny!

Jambo Fisher is waaaay overrated in this list but otherwise i think it is directionally correct, which is all you can really expect from one of these exercises.

Agree with Saban at 1 and Spurrier should probably be 2. After that this list goes downhill fast.

Tape breaks on Malzahn. Auburn was extremely lucky with big breaks in 3 of the games they won. Most years he would have lost 1 or 2 of those games.

Once again, Miles is undervalued, and someone like Brian Kelly is overvalued.
