It's not turnovers.
It's not how the #1 offense fares vs the #1 defense.
It's not penalties.
It's not the refs.

Quite simply, it is Jordan Jefferson.
We know he is going to start and lead at least half og LSU's drives.
How he goes, so goes the LSU tigers.

No other factor even compares.

That x-ray is inaccurate. Think there's a skull there.

FYI he's gonna play for like 20 plays and possibly not even start by the demeanor of Les in the press conference. I would say he's definitely not the key to the game lol.

Unless he has suddenly
1) Developed a quick throwing motion
2) Learned to look off receivers and progress in his reads
3) Learned how to make quick decisions

He will
1) telepath his passes
2) take more sacks or throw more INT's
3) get more 3-and-outs

Thank you very much.

JJ has to grow up as a leader and a QB. If Les is going to give him half the snaps, it better be tomorrow.

That's my point. We know he is gonna play most of the game on offense. If he continues to play like he has thus far, we lose.

If he puts it together and has a good, or even average game, we win.

Well no one "knows" this just like no one really "knows" he's going to start. We just believe it based on what Les has said before every game vs what we eventually see during every game.

What makes you think he won't. Has Miles given ANY indication that the QB rotation will change. Because it hasn't yet no matter how bad JJ plays.

For the last 2 1/2 years fans have said "wait till next game, things will change and the offense will open up." And week after week it has been more of the same.
What makes you so sure Miles finally gets it?

Well the fact that Lee got 60% of the snaps tells me that they are shifting towards Lee.

We have two different types of qb's. There is only a limited amount if practice time. You can't just flip a switch one day and implement an entirely new gameplan when facing the schedule we have faced.

Fans are dumb.

The key is turnovers, the QB situation is pointless to argue over. If we give Auburn a short field like we did against Florida we will lose.

True, which is why it is so key. JJ has to play well for us to win.

Lee gets more snaps because the offense actually moves the ball when he is leading them.

JJ still starts more drives. He gets less snaps because his drive invariably stall.

All the more reason why how he plays tomorow will determine the outcome.

JJ won't play much unless he's just killing it in his first few chances.

This the key to the game , it is not going to be about anyone player, it is going to be about the the team. Read this which I have posted a couple time today and last night and see if you agree.

One statement that I have been told ever since I started playing football when I was in High School and it goes for every level of the game,

Stats are for loosers! Winners never allow the other team to control how they play the game. The game is played with high intensity and at a high level of controled emotions that are founded with sound fundimentals.

If you are concerned by how many yards a certain player on the other team from playing other opponents then that is going to create within you a weakness that will give that player an advantage over you. Therefore if you play the game with a high level of skill that is based on a sound fundimental base and the talent that was born within you you will not be concerned with how many yards he has gained on someone else, you will control him from gaining ground on you. The same applies on the offensive side of the ball.

Winners never are dictated to by the other team, they dictate to the other team what they can or cannot do. The battles will be won within the team that has the greatest desire to win!

I SAY! You have to believe and have faith that they are going to play to their level of talent and above the talent of their opposition.

I SAY!

I don't know. That's what I thought going into Tennesse and McNeese, and a few other games.

To his credit he played well (at least relative to his usual performance) vs Florida. Although his drives still stalled before they could score.

That's all fine and good if you are on the team and actually have some say in the outcome.

It is absolutely meaningless in regards to fans watching from the stands or their living room.

Well? No. Better than rock-bottom-throw-up-and-nausea? Yes.
