    I believe Holtz somewhat made this point last night. I'm a firm believer that a team is a reflection of its coach and that players play to the "Tone" the coach sets. That being the case, did you notice how the LSU players looked more relaxed and seemed to be enjoying the game more?

    I believe that Alabama played to the level of stress that their coach displayed on the sideline.....input=output.

    In contrast, Miles has handled success and adversity about as well as anyone can expect. The players have stated their love for Miles and wanting to win for him many, many times......have NEVER heard anyone talk about Saban in that way.

    I believe we saw once again that more than one style works. The players on both teams played with great character, desire and energy. They are both great coaches and I am glad we had Saban and that we have Miles.
