Les Miles' magic runs out against Auburn, and his time at LSU may have, too

AUBURN, Ala. -- Has the magic run out for Les Miles at LSU?

The “Mad Hatter” has found ways to win time and time again in his career, but just when we thought that he might pulled another one off, a review overturned what would have been a game-winning touchdown catch by D.J. Chark.

Instead, it was Gus Malzahn who secured a much-needed victory as Auburn survived 18-13 in a game featuring two coaches squarely on the hot seat.

There was a strong push by a group of LSU power brokers to force out Miles last year, but he survived in the final hour thanks to some political maneuvering in the state of Louisiana.
