    Head Coach INTRO NOTEBOOK COACHES TIGERS REVIEW THE SEASON HISTORY Les Miles LSU FOOTBALL HEAD COACH After leading LSU to an 11-2 mark and a top five national ranking in his first year as LSU's head coach, many wondered just what Les Miles would do for an encore. His second year with the Tigers has been another year full of milestones and firsts as he's guided the Tigers to a 10-2 overall mark and a berth in the Sugar Bowl against Notre Dame. LSU's at-large berth in a BCS bowl is a first in school history and it also represents the third time this decade that the Tigers will play in the Sugar Bowl. In 2006, Miles became the first coach in LSU history to lead the Tigers to back-to-back 10-wins seasons and with 21 victories in his first 25 games as the school's head coach, his win total matches Bernie Moore for the most in school history over that span. He also became the first LSU coach since Jerry Stovall in 1982 to beat two top 10-ranked teams on the road in the same season. 24 2007 LSU FOOTBALL SUGAR BOWL GUIDE Head Coach INTRO NOTEBOOK COACHES TIGERS REVIEW THE SEASON HISTORY The Tigers were able to accomplish all of Stadium against North Texas was postponed. this despite having to face four top eight With the LSU campus serving as the recovery opponents on the road in 2006.
