, if you know anything about football, that a Freshman would struggle this year.


I continue to see quotes like this-- There have been some who have succeeded.

Who are some that come to mind?

What SEC team with a Heisman QB that struggled with 4 losses?

We can throw irrelevant stats all day long!

What is the definition of 'success'? Going undefeated?

Tommy Hodson was a RsFR and led us to the SEC title in 1986.Now,with that said,I'm behind Lee and the loss was a group effort/lack of.

Still,freshman or not,I wouldn't want a HS jr standing there like he's at the county fair aiming a dart at a balloon.And the throwing off the back foot is a coaching problem.Sure,Lee is doing it,but he's been doing it all year.

Tulane isn't a conference game,but this really could be what the doctor ordered.

Take it lightly - we lose ULM????

Let it overbuild your confidence-=- we lose to AL

Let it be what it is - a game we should win, a good scrimmage were we can work on our weaknesses and improve- and we may have a chance to turn our team around-- that is a big MAY

Just goes to show how seldom freshman QB's succeed.

22 years.

Huh?

UGA was 8-4 in 2001 with Greene as a freshman. Not horrible of course, but isn't that the type record many LSU fans are saying would be a complete disaster season?
