That might be the case now that Orgeron is the head coach but under Miles not so much. Miles had an 87% win percentage and avged 8th in the nation his 10+ years in Baton Rouge. I was told by one of LSUs biggest boosters that lives in Lafayette that Miles was fired because of 2 things: 1)He wasn't Nick Sabin (well Duh, Sabin had just left) and 2)He was hired without the blessing of the majority of the big boosters of LSU.

Certainly, Les had them high for a while. But I think they began being overrated in his last few years, he got fired, and now they have O. I also just dont respect the SEC schedule as much lately. I think they are mid-tier in the West, and that just doesnt seem Top 15 material to me. Alabama, Auburn, and MSU are better to me. They’ll play Miami and Georgia this year so we’ll see how they stack up agains the top of the East and a top team in another conference... and against us of course!
