Les Miles hosted a Reddit AMA on Monday afternoon and, in typical Mad Hatter fashion, gave open and honest responses to most of the questions that were asked of him.
One of the more enlightening answers Miles gave involved which teams and coaches were the most difficult to game plan against.
Miles said Alabama’s defense under Nick Saban and Florida’s offense during the Urban Meyer/Tim Tebow era were some of the toughest units he had to prepare for during his time in Baton Rouge:

Indeed, those teams were tough for every coach to game plan for, so Miles can’t be blamed for struggling against them.
Even now, teams are consistently outmaneuvered by Saban’s defensive strategies and the Crimson Tide’s impeccable fundamentals and technique.
As Miles tries to get back into the coaching ranks, it’ll be interesting to see if he lands another job, perhaps in either the SEC or the Big Ten, where he can face off against some of his old rivals.
