Best Thing Football Coach Can Say Of Opponent: 'Great Law School'

Note he probably won't say this before the Texas A&M game.

Carrier Dome, indoor facility, been there before. Interesting place. Great law school, great school, New York’s college.

— LSU Coach Les Miles, as his 8th ranked Tigers trek to upstate New York to take on the perennial doormat that is Syracuse. The always entertaining Miles eschewed common coaching etiquette of opening a press conference with kind words about the other team to throw in a non-sequitur about the law school. It’s unclear why a coach who “doesn’t read books” would care so much about a law school, but I guess you have to come up with something to say that isn’t “Leonard Fournette’s going to run for 300 this week!”
