Les Miles, you've been pilloried around most parts in the past week, and rather frequently over the past three years by the world in general. But today we and the rest of Tiger Nation owe you a tip of the hat, sir. You are the leader of the SEC Champions. Congratulations, and thanks - in addition to the Title, you turned down what most everyone considered was a no-brainer job for you to take, and in doing so earned the affection of an entire state, clock management be damned.

Here's hoping there's plenty more where today's SEC Title came from!

GEAUX TIGERS!!!
