I do not know about the rest of you, but les miles does not strike fear in my SEC west heart. Could someone fill me in on why maybe he got the job, or maybe his past.

Les Miles took a 21-24 program to 28-21 record. Excluding his 2 wins against Oklahoma, Miles was 2-15 against the other quality ( 8-wins or more ) teams he competed against in the last 4 years. The average score in those 15 losses against “quality” opponents was 37-18.

In his defense he's supposed to be a good X's and O's coach and a good recruiter. It will be difficult to replace Saban but I guess we'll have to wait and see.
