I assume LSU players read, see, hear, the hype machines of modern technology. You guys sound like you're waiting on coach Saban and Miles to tell these players how to feel about a contest described, as the "game of the century." We got a coach with a happy face. Yeah, that's the ticket.
Worked for coach Bryant, Woody Hayes, Bo Schembechler, Vince Lombardi, Adolf Rupp.......... You know, just the best that's ever been, in any sport.
Not sure what the heck you're talking about with this post, especially after watching that video and seeing how intense Coach Miles is. But I would love to be a fly on the wall of both locker rooms right before the game.
Then you understand my point very well. The LSU fans trying to describe Les Miles coaching, bedside manner, as the second coming of Mr Rogers, you may want to take exception.
The demeanor of the coach means a lot, but honestly who cares? Fact is both coaches have been extremely successful. Each style has been widely successful with various coaches. I hadnt posted in quite some time but have always lurked since last season. Ill be the first to admit that over the course of the last few years Ive been very critical of Miles. I must say that this year Ive been very pleased with his performance. It seems the problem was Crowton, although it does fall partly on Miles so he did deserve criticism. That said, he is back to his old ways with proper play calling. Miles has a true love for his players and LSU. Its shines, its what makes his players wanna run through walls for him. He is coaching with a swagger which reflects in the players. Win or lose next saturday I can say Im very happy with this team and Miles. All I ever wanted was to play to win and improvement. Im seeing that. Bama is a damn good team. It will be a tough, hard fought game. May the best team win. I think LSU will win in a close game. Both sides will be feeling it for a while. Sadly, the BCSCG isnt on the line because these are the two best teams in the country.
