Short memories and such.

Go back to 2008. Where the mighty bengal tigers had to come back to beat Troy at home and got blown out by UGA, UF, & Ole Miss. And that stellar 3-5 SEC record.

Not to mention Saban's embarrassing losses to ULM & UAB.
Saban also got blown the frick out in at least 3 games a year at MSU.

Couple of things. 1) If you're gonna give LSU hell about coming from behind to beat Troy by 9 then I guess you're gonna give your own team hell for needing an onside kick to beat Utah State, huh?
2) UGA beat LSU by 13 that year. I wouldn't call that a "blow out".

Those were embarassing loses in his first year in new programs. No doubt.

Show me where he managed to not correct the problems from those loses and continued on to lose 10 straight.

You're a good dude, joeyb, but you can't honestly think that Chizik is in the same category of coach as Miles or Saban. He may eventually be, but he isn't close to it right now.
