You can disect the OC and OL and HC and playcalling all day long, but only one thing adds up to effecient offensive production and victories in the SEC. A QUARTERBACK THAT IS EITHER A JUNIOR OR SENIOR.

Look at the top 3 teams in the country right now. Florida - Senior, Bama - Senior, Texas - Senior. I think its safe to say that 1 of those teams will win the NC. Look back at the past 5 SEC champs and National Champs for that matter.

2008 Florida - Jr. QB, 2 year starter
2007 LSU - 5th yr Sr. QB
2006 Florida - Sr. QB
2005 Texas - Jr. QB
2004 USC - Sr. QB
2003 LSU - Sr. QB (24 years old)

Throw in the past SEC champs for those years and each winner had a Sr. or Jr. QB.

Anyone notice a pattern here? I think we just need to be patient and save our breath. That doesn't excuse the offense from being this bad, but it is part of the problem.

well said, but is it not fair to hold miles accountable for sticking with lee as long as he did when he could have cut his losses earlier last year and startet grooming jj?

i say play shep now about half the snaps

Inexperience at QB and bad OLINE, both are problems that compound each other.

Agree with this premise.

Had Perriloux not flaked out, 7-5 last season is probably 9-3 or even 10-2. Having a Sr. QB as starter this season would take 10-2 to probably 11-1 or maybe better.

Given that he just turned 19, JJ is about where we should expect him to be, and shows promise into the future.

True, but this is the 2nd year in a row LSU is hampered by an inexperienced QB. MAybe the talented QBs we have arent getting the proper coaching...
