You are right about Anthony Jennings not being a good QB under Center, but that is all. AJ was utilized by our coaches in a way to beat Ole miss and Florida. Arkansas the year before. Also, LSU has and will always be a I-formation team first and shotgun/pistol offense 2nd.

You talk about the A&M game but conveniently forget about the prior games that Anthony Jennings won! Florida/Ole miss. Nobody gives any credit where it is due. Anthony Jennings won that Florida game for us. 3rd and 23 in the 4th quarter. AJ completes a pass to Dural for nearly 30 yards. Later, on that drive throws a fade on 3rd down to Dural to score a TD late in the game @ Gainesville, Florida.

Let's just face it. Last year we were too young and re-tooling. We were due for a down year, 8-5.
Brandon Harris was not ready and any logical fan that saw his performance in the 1st half vs Auburn @ home knows that. Last year, if Harris remained healthy he would not have played over AJ simply because he was not ready. Vadal Alexander and Brandon Harris both acknowledge that Harris did not know the ins, the outs, and even called/ran the wrong plays straight out the huddle.

LSU and Les Miles will always play the player that gives us the best opportunity for victory.

Are you really going to contend that LSU beat Ole Miss because of how our offense performed? If so, you're an idiot and I'm wasting my time having this conversation.

When Jennings was able to spread the field and use his legs, it opened up the running game for everyone, otherwise teams could stack the box and wait for us to run against 8-9 in the box.
