If this was AJ's first or second game performance, I would be happy.

And I've been pumping and focusing on the positives, but this is fair - this is early-mid season improvement, not the end of a sophomore year.

But, if you look at how little he got to play last year, even in blowouts, and again how little Harris is playing, even in blowouts (although it was more and he did have a horrific outing in a start, on the road, at Auburn), it's amazing that we are here, about to have 2 QBs, a sophomore and a junior, and how little they have played despite that tenure and them being the only QBs to play (Kragthorpe's series, notwithstanding) since 2012, other than Mett.

BINGO - how little the back up QB gets to play, even in blowouts ..
Huge Decade long problem with Miles - think he would eventually pick up how that constant trend is killing us down the line.

I do. He played well

No.


I feel a little better about the play calling, with the jet sweep and designed QB runs, but Jennings still only passed for 107 yards. When you play the better defenses in the SEC, you will get beat if you can't throw the ball at all, and he still hasn't proven he can do that.

I think Harris has potential to be the best QB in the conference while I think Jennings can be slightly better than Marcus Randall. You can win games with AJ, especially with play calling like last night, but he isn't someone that should be playing over BH next year.

Lee and Jefferson were very limited in ability

Lee had a ton more ability than Jennings. He just got mind fricked by Miles and company.

The new play set suited him well. I feel better about him than I did before kickoff that's for sure.

True, but at the same time, before this game, most of us had zero confidence in him. The runs were nice, but he still lacks pocket presence & has a glaring inability on most of his throws.

Good JL was a little better passing and a lot worse running than either Good AJ or Bad AJ.

Bad JL is one of the worst LSU QBs of all time. So is Bad AJ, and both bad AJ and bad JL were capable of a shockingly high rate of turnovers. On the other hand, we saw bad JL more often than bad AJ.

Good AJ is way better than bad JL. Average JL is probably better than average AJ.

(Both QBs appear to have a significant tendency for hot/cold streaks - that's what I'm saying here.)

Nope --> AJ did have some good runs though. If the A&M QB hadn't thrown that last ball up for grabs(just like Ole Miss), there's a better than average chance that A&M wins. All of the Miles groupies are hailing the new offense, the second coming of Jennings, and the wondrous new jet sweep. These were definitely high points of improvement and were encouraging. BUT THEY WERE ALL AGAINST THE AGGIE DEFENSE WHICH MANY HIGH SCHOOLS COULD MANHANDLE. Before everyone starts celebrating in the streets proclaiming all is well and Alleva should give Miles a raise and extension, let's see how they do in a bowl and next year. Remember, AJ is the man and next year's OL will have to be rebuilt. So, more than likely, we will all hear the standard pumper manifesto next year declaring "our OL is young" and, you guessed it, "wait til next year"

absolutely not. If LSU's plan is to keep going with jennings next year the results will be similar.
