In the Nov game Jarrett Lee was 3 for 7 with 2 picks. 1 of which was returned to the to the 2 yard line but was called back for a block in the back and they wound up with a FG. quote:Why wouldn’t he try Lee at any point for some momentum. Because in 4 games against Bama in his career he was dreadful. He was an avg at best college QB. This fantasy that somehow he could have come in and saved the day is just wishful thinking. Look at the 2009 SECCG, Bama shut down Florida and Tebow with basically the same defense only they were younger. Now if they held Tebow to 13 points do you really think Jarrett freaking Lee was going to save the day?




I said at the time the kindest thing that Miles ever did to Lee was not put him in that game. It turned him from an average at best qb into an LSU legend.



Should he have put in Lee or mettenberger? Absolutely.

The likelihood that it changes the outcome in any positive manner is near zero.

As it is he created a fantasy in some fans minds of Jarrett Lee coming in to save the day which can’t be disproven. It’s like uncle Rico.
