This is a great stat. Thanks for sharing!

The most interesting thing looking back are the 3 games since 2005 when he did not trail in the 4th Quarter (i.e. gave up a lead and went into overtime). 2005 Tennessee (OT), 2007 Kentucky (OT), and 2012 Clemson Chick Fil A (FG at buzzer). Les won every other game where he did not trail entering the 4th quarter.

2008 to 2010 was also a fluctuation upward of those types of games and there have been less in the periods of 2005 to 2007 and 2011 to now. If you cherry pick and held out 2008 and 09, Les is 18-12 in games where he trailed in the 4th quarter, or 60%. In 2008 and 2009, he was 4-9, or 30.7%. Last year was not a good year for these types of games, with Arkansas being the only win.

2005 Trailing in the 4th: 3 wins, 1 losses
2006 Trailing in the 4th: 2 wins, 2 losses
2007 Trailing in the 4th: 4 wins, 1 loss
2008 Trailing in the 4th: 2 wins, 5 losses
2009 Trailing in the 4th: 2 wins, 4 losses
2010 Trailing in the 4th: 4 wins, 2 losses
2011 Trailing in the 4th: 1 win, 1 loss
2012 Trailing in the 4th: 2 wins, 2 losses
2013 Trailing in the 4th: 1 win, 3 losses
2014 Trailing in the 4th: 1 win, 0 losses
Total Trailing in the 4th: 22 wins, 21 losses

Without 2008 + 09: 18 wins, 12 losses
