The mood seemed light at LSU coach Les Miles’ weekly press conference after a monumental win against Alabama.
Miles told stories of his recruiting trips to American Samoa while coaching at Colorado and explained his vision for turning Jamaican track star Usain Bolt into a football player. Miles has the freedom to make jokes after defeating the now No. 3 Crimson Tide and having Western Kentucky as the next opponent.
That didn’t prevent Miles from taking time to compliment the Hilltoppers.
“We go to Western Kentucky, who’s won five straight and is a very talented team,” Miles said. “They’ve beaten some very quality football teams. It shows how competitive they can held.”
