Glad LSU got that 2007 title but let's not act like it wasn't gift wrapped for us.

Always great when our own fans try to downplay our national title. Why would other fans even worry about trolling us? We freakin do it to ourselves.

It's hard to take anyone seriously who says we deserved the 07 title as much as the 03 title.

This may have already been asked or brought up...but why doesn't he want to be directly quoted?

its hard to take anyone seriously that actually thinks we deserved one over the other.

we deserved both equally. its just plain stupid to think otherwise. oh...thats right...Miles was the coach in '07 so we have to shite all over that NC.

fricking idiots

Miles is letting UM know that he might still be interested but that they need to act fast and not make him an offer when they have been turned down 3-4 times.


This is it. Unfortunately for both LSU and Michigan, Michigan is chasing a pipe dream and will end up with a much less proven coach than Miles.

Deserved to be there is worthy of discussion, but deserved to win? We did win that title so I'm not sure how we deserved the win any less than in 03. Both teams accomplished their goal and won.

Because he's leaving the door open. If Michigan offers, Miles will listen. That presser was a bunch of nonsense other than a weak attempt to eliminate distractions for his team as they prepare for the Bowl. He left the door open...no doubt about it.

I don't think so.

As I recall, in both cases, a lot had to fall into place for LSU to play for the NC. And it all did fall into place. And once LSU got the opportunity, they made the most of it. Neither Oklahoma nor Ohio State just rolled over.

Luck? Sure. But every team that wins a NC needs an element of that.

There are varying degrees of luck.
1 loss teams commonly play for titles. 2 loss teams dont.

And it so happens that in 2007, as I recall, everybody had two losses except for Ohio State. Which means that SOMEBODY had to play them for the title. The powers that be deemed a two loss SEC champion the best representative to do so.

Again, a lot had to fall into place. I think we all remember that final weekend.

I think my point is that every individual season is different. So comparing them is pretty pointless.

How many teams have won it with 2 losses?

The only reason we needed "luck" in 2003 was that the BCS was screwed up. Our loss was in our 6th game to a team that went 6-2 in the SEC.

We needed luck in 2007 because we lost two of our last 6 regular season games to teams with a combined 7-9 SEC record.

You can compare the seasons if you want, but it is objectively not a good comparison for the 07 season.

I'm starting to disbelieve that you are posting in good faith, Choctaw, when all you do is post gifs and one-liners like this.

there's no arguing with someone who would shite on a NC because he hates the coach. someone with that mentality only deserves gifs and one-liners

Has Les Miles given his recommendation for the next Michigan head coach? He did a great job helping them find Brady Hoke for the last hire.

See my post above yours.

I don't compare seasons against each other. I judge them on their own individual merits, because they're all different.
