    Mangino is solid, yet he hasnt performed anybody. Vanderbilt or Iowa would desire to be 9-0 suitable now with that time table. heavily, provide the guy some credit as quickly as he does some thing solid. Im going to would desire to bypass with the two my boy Jim Tressel or LSU's Les Miles, because of the fact theyre the two in comparable situations. Miles lost his movie star QB JaMarcus Russell, his 2 precise wideouts Dwayne Bowe and Craig Davis, and his precise protection LaRon Landry and nevertheless has a team poised to bypass to the national Championship. Tressell lost his Heisman triumphing QB Troy Smith, 3 great wideouts in Ted Ginn, Anthony Gonzalez and Roy hall, his working back Antonio Pittman, his all confrence middle Doug Datish, and all confrence DT Quinn Pitcock. What do each and every of those adult men do? they only replace them and bypass approximately corporation as prevalent. No Troy Smith? Dont concern, Todd Boeckman is beginning off to look further and further like the subsequent Tom Brady each and every interest. No Ginn/Gonzo/Pittman? Brian Robiske and Brian Hartline have crammed the footwear right and sophomore tailback Chris Wells is doubtless unstoppable. You lose JaMarcus Russell, #a million basic p.c.., and positioned across in Matt Flynn and Ryan Perriloux, the QB duo that has greater beneficial than worked out. You lose Bowe/Davis? Early Doucet has emerged as probably the rustic's precise wideout. And, i'm hoping its no longer too quickly to communicate, yet this years LSU squad is calling an undesirable lot like final 3 hundred and sixty 5 days's national Champion Gators team, with each and every of the fee, the two QB equipment and the finished D. the two LSU and Ohio State have the marks of great communities, yet my side is going to Les Miles and the Bayou Bengals, who've performed between the toughest schedules interior the land and completed to perfection lots of the main gutsy calls Ive ever seen. coach of the 300 and sixty 5 days, Les Miles, Mr. 4th down himself.
