More often than not, Harris has looked very lost this season.

Uhh, aside from the Auburn game, what leads you to believe this? He hasn't been in any games to look lost in.

If this is true (and I tend to believe it), then Jennings reminds me of my college roommate.

My roommate took basic Algebra (1021) his first semester and was failing it so bad at midterm that he dropped it.

The next semester he asked me if I could tutor him. I agreed to. I had helped some high school classmates with Calculus (1550) the first semester and they all did fine. It took me about 2-3 tutoring sessions to realize that the kid just was incapable of getting it. He just didn't "see" the obvious -- things you just can't teach. He put in an unGodly amount of time into the course. We not only went through ever problem in his textbook, but we also went through tons of problems in a commercial outline. But it just didn't matter. I kept tutoring him, but to no avail. He eventually failed the class.

Sophomore year he hired a professional tutor. As I suspected, it did no good.

The kid took 1021 a total of 5 times before he just gave up and transferred to a community college.

Maybe it's time for Jennings to transfer to a community college. He clearly doesn't get it and never will. If Les can't see that by now (especially with all the sh!t we went through with Jordan Jefferson), he never will either.

The Auburn game was one game. The Wisconsin game was one series where both guys looked awful.

Aside from that, Harris had lead LSU to what? like 10 straight TD drives, while Jennings looked horrific versus inferior competition. It's sad to see LSU settle with such inferior QB play just because they win regardless of QB play.. so they settle up on that and play scared when it comes to passing the football. I would love to see LSU play confident on offense and able to strike quick if ever needed to overcome a possible turnover..

I've watched Jennings look lost in several game also. It's like his brain doesn't register that there are routes being ran in the middle of the field.

This comment, which has been repeated by others, is astounding to me. Jennings has looked lost in almost every game, especially the Miss. St. game, which is why Brandon started vs. NMS.

Harris has had 1/4 the attempts. Something like 45 vs 170. He has a better YPC, Completion ration, ration of attempts to TD's etc. QB ratings are Harris 175 & Jennings 120. He also has thrown few int's

If Harris had been given the same # of attempts he would be our starter for a long time. Jennings knows the coaches are going with him. Harris is being used as a mop up guy. Let the boy play. Use the 2 QB system if you have to.
