1. Pick a QB, AJ or Brandon Harris, and stick with him.

Les Miles best seasons
2011 - Best Regular Season in college football history, benches Lee for JJ after he served his suspension and things began to go South leading to the eventual beat down in the NC
2007 - Matt Flynn, started 12 of 14 games but an injury led to Perriloux getting 2 starts
2006 - JaMarcus Russell, started all games
2010 - Jordan Jefferson, started all 13 games
2005 - JaMarcus Russell, started 12 of 13 games

The point? LSU wins under Les Miles when there is a clear cut starter. Granted the 2011 season had two starters but we all remember how that season ended and also that we honestly had two sub par QBs running a great offense and one of, if not the best, defense in the NCAA that year.

Chicken or egg? Did Miles stick with a QB those seasons because we had good QBs or were they good because they got to play all year? I'm going with the former. You aren't flip flopping QBs if you have someone who is better than the alternatives. 3 of those 4 seasons you listed were led by 2 of the best QBs to play at LSU.
