6. 1st and 10 at LSU 11 (2Q, 3:46)

7. 1st and 10 at LSU 33 (2Q, 0:47)
- Jordan Jefferson pass incomplete to Russell Shepard.
- Jordan Jefferson sacked by Alec Ogletree for a loss of 17 yards to the LSU 16, LSU penalty 0 yard Intentional Grounding on Jordan Jefferson accepted.

The O-Line was not as sharp as it was later in second half. The RBs were also not gaining as well as they did in the second half.

Given the line of scrimmage and the snaps that JJ was used on, which series and snaps do you think Lee could have been used in and how would he have done better. Assume similar performance by UGA defense, LSU O-Line, and RBs.

Using the info above (culled from ESPN drive charts) Lee could have been used in drives 2, 5, and 7 (I'm assuming that JJ is expected to use his legs closer to the end-zone and pass plays are limited). Drive 7 had only 47 secs. Only drive 5 seems to be an option.

When O-Line was not performing as expected, did the coaches shy away from Lee and things snowballed the the second half eliminating any need for Lee's skill.

Drive 4 or 5.

Georgia's punter did a very good job in the game. He did a good job flipping the field like Wing.

None of them. If JJ is the QB, he plays the entire game.

None, LSU would have lost the game. LSU didn't beat Georgia with passing.
