Les Miles Game Quotations

We better understand that games in this stadium with non-conference opponents can have a very negative effect if they're not prepared, ... UAB and Miami of Ohio are two such evidences of that.

I think that will continue. I think everybody fits ideas into the system they have and the personnel they're coaching. We share it with people that are friends with our program and will keep it disclosed, so not to give away anything that we're certainly counting on winning games with.

The competition is between JaMarcus Russell and Matt Flynn to start, ... I think we will find that we will approach our game week and our game days, determine who our starter is and at that point in time we'd like to go with one guy from that point forward.

I do not think the crowd affected us, but the position of being in a big time game may well have affected us.

I have a little tradition that humbles me as a man that lets me know I'm a part of the field and a part of the game, and it's the very bottom as well as the very top. Yeah, it's going to be all over the internet. You know what? You should've seen some games before this. I'll tell you one thing, the grass at Tiger Stadium tastes best.

Yeah, we call that mulling around. Okay guys, come on now. What we're going to do early in this game is mull around, okay? And later, we're going call that monkey-off-our-back play.

I'm going to let my field goal kicker kick field goals. I'm not going to ask my team not to score. I didn't notice anything during the game that looked like it was going to lead to a fight.

I'm thrilled for this football team. They come into the final game of the season with a new quarterback, a very capable, confident young man. And they controlled the line of scrimmage for him and played dominant defense.
