Well, the numbers back him up passing wise.

I think he felt JJs mobility gave him an edge against Bama.

He should have realized it was a non-factor and adjusted.

Is Les his Mom?

That's pitiful.

my favorite was after the game with Erin Andrews when she asked what the problem was with offense....

If jj could throw in a like fashion, then why did'nt he. At least air it out a few times to back up the defenders.

Jefferson, in my opinion, could throw in a like fashion

And that, my friends, is why Miles has deservedly been questioned by his fanbase, as a coach.

could throw in a like fashion but could avoid the pass rush




Your kidding right????? Jefferson ran scared of the pass rush all night. He had the deer in the head lights look all night unless he was too busy blaming everyone for his mistakes... It was a pisspoor showing of sportsmanship and being a team player... I am so glad this is over. Jefferson lost this ballgame for us but Miles let it happen!!!!

Lee should have seen the field after the shovel interception at the latest.

Lee was choking in the first Bama game and Les was right to pull him. Jefferson was choking as bad or worse and Les stayed with him. The only answer is there has to be more to the story or Les is crazy.

He was a deer in the headlights for sure. There were opportunities to throw the ball, JJ simply did not capitalize.

I don't disagree. It's puzzling, at best.

I think Miles was terrified of throwing Lee to the wolves and how he'd handle that pass rush, since he's never shown the ability to deal with it before. But at some point you have to say, this shite ain't working and try something, anything.

If it looks anything like that game last night, Miles should be fired immediately.

When you go through a whole half of a game and get nowhere it is time to change. Les did this consistently, especially the last few games. Keeping Jarrett Lee on the bench was bull. I will never get over Mile´s refusal to put a passer in the game. Did not Lee help us win last years game. It must have been all JJ and I am wrong here.

Yep. Miles really didn't want the $1 million or so raise he would get from winning that game. So he hampered his team's chances on purpose. It was all an elaborate scheme that will save the university money in the long run.

I call BS, if it would be so unfair why did you put him in the first Bama Game? Is it a different pass rush than before, did they recruit some NFL players since our first matchup this year. That being the case if the pass rush is so unfair for Lee why subject JJ to the same abuse. I think JJ has grounds for a lawsuit if he is tramatized by playing in that game and Lee was spared the trama.
