I know it is probably not realistic, but it would be great to see a real test of both QB's and close to the same level of challenge as possible.

More likely, it will be meaningless for any of us to make a determination from.

Still though, its football !!!!!

Wait til Saturday at about 3:00. Everyone on this board will be making meaningless determinations from what they see.

If Harris goes something crazy like 12 for 15, 230 yards and 3 TD and Jennings is like 8 for 17, 98 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT and then gets named starter in the fall the board WILL indeed shut down.

Miles said himself it will be a super vanilla practice

That already happened.

last year.

at the spring game.



quote:

Freshmen quarterback Brandon Harris was 11-of-28 for 195 yards and tossed three touchdowns during the second quarter. He also led LSU’s rushing attack with 75 yards on six carries and added a rushing score in the second half.


quote:

Rising sophomore signal-caller Anthony Jennings completed 9-of-17 passes for 157 yards and a touchdown..


quote:

On the defensive end, linebackers Deion Jones and Kwon Alexander scored touchdowns on interception returns during the first half.


2 pick sixes by AJ.

I think the defenses will wreck shop. If the Qbs look at least average against them I'll be excited.

Quite similar to his bama game stats..



edit: whoops - gave a bit too much credit. Here's actual bama stats:
8 for 26, 76 yds, 1 td 1 int, 60.3 rating.

If it's a true competition and open then Harris should get the first reps and look come Spring Game. Otherwise Miles is still sensitive to one guy

How would that prove it's a true competition?

Spring Game FIFY...

as per usual with the Spring Game... it'll be fun because we get to see the Tigers suit up and play against each other in Death Valley but it's essentially meaningless.

whatever analysis you take away from the game needs to be gleaned with a massive grain of salt.

Spring games do not indicate anything, anywhere, anytime.

Jennings will play with the Ones and complete 45% of his passes but will hit a long one to Dural or something for a TD against the defensive Twos.

Harris will be average with the Twos against the Ones but will still score 3 TDs.

We'll know nothing after the game and the coaches won't either.

They will shut it down and head to Fall and Jennings will be your starter. We won't even think about a change until we lose 2 games.

That is the deal. Why think otherwise?

I would love to see the rants reaction if Jennings clearly out plays Harris in the spring game.

I hope they both complete every pass they attempt.


Then the rant will just freak out about Steele. Really a no win situation.

the more vanilla, the more likely Harris is crowned the starter by CLM.
