I think the SEC is much stronger during Miles' tenure than it was during Spurrier's run. Tons more conference depth. Having the national champ ALWAYS coming out of the SEC. 5 of 20 losses(25%), which could get to 6 of 20(30%), coming vs. the eventual national champion. Miles of consisency here ya'll. LSU has ALWAYS been right there in the national championship picture late in the season, with the only exceptions being 2008 and 2009(his only non-double-digit win seasons). One can argue that LSU has been the most consisent football program of the millenium. All in the best conference(and division, for that matter) in the country. Keep your heads up Tiger fans! Let's get a good bowl victory and re-load for another run at it next year. Oh, what could have been if we had played better D to end each half vs. Bama. Two difficult losses to Bama are sticking in our craw for sure.
With a bowl win, LSU will end up in the top 4 of the bcs for the 4th time in 8 seasons and top 8 for the 6th time during Miles' tenure.
