    With less than 5 minutes to go and a 14 pt lead, you simply punt it way on 4th and one from your opponents 42. No way in hell do you give your opposition a short field in which to work with.

    Les Miles says go out there and get it done. And the Tigers did just that.

    All year long he has pumped his team up putting all his faith that they can do it. Five of 5 4th down conversions against Florida.

    He never once played "not to lose". Not once this entire year. You play to win the game, in the immortal words of Herm Edwards.

    And for that, we are hoisting the crystal once again.

    Thanks Les for having testicles the size of Canada.
