Ole Miss may have an 0-6 Southeastern Conference record and its coach, Houston Nutt, on the way out, but that didn’t prevent LSU coach Les Miles from complimenting the Rebels on Monday during his weekly press conference.
Miles said teams eliminated from bowl contention will be motivated to win, especially facing the No. 1 team in the country. Miles coached a four-win team at Oklahoma State in 2001, his first year as head coach.
“The piece is how you play football and how you want to be remembered and who you are,” Miles said. “It’s much more past.”
