*Les admits to gakking the time out call after the 3rd down. He assumed someone else had called it until 17 seconds rolled off.
*On the last play. Les wasn't signalling to "clock it", he was signalling to the ref that the ball was down. The coaches upstairs thought OM had 12 players on the field and wanted to spike it to get a defensive penalty - play can't end on a def penalty. Les disagreed w/ the call...he wanted to run a play -- not enough time for a FG try. Infers that it was moot anyway because they never got the snap off.
*Miles takes full responsibility for the whole situation.
After listening to the press conference, Miles seems more like a Bobby Bowden type manager and not a Saban type, in control of all facets of his team's play.
