Not sure if this has been posted, but if so....screw it.
Jefferson switch backfires on Miles as Lee sits

When Miles didn't put JL in the game he was conceding the game, and I think the team felt it.
Agreed. I have listened to people argue saying, do you think JL could have won the game. I would have brought him after Bama missed the 2nd field goal. The crowd was up and Lee was loosening up. Then JJ runs out and the crowd Boo's. If Lee runs out, the place goes crazy. The players in the huddle could have fed off that.
-The linemen could have worked harder on the blocks
-The RB could pushed their legs harder
-The Wr could have made someone miss
Lee wouldn't had to do it on his own. Ask any player how they get pumped in the huddle with their crowd is going crazy. 1 spark could have changed this crowd.
The players seen their coach giving up and that is how we finished the game.

Another "jewel" from Coach Les Syntax.

This is a P.S. to my earlier reply to Miles' excuse of wanting to play Jefferson in the BCS game because of his feet!
Miles must have a very short memory, because in the 2010 Alabama game in Tiger Stadium, after Jefferson went down, it was Lee's "feet" that allowed him to scramble out of the pocket under an all-out blitz, on a crucial 3rd and 14 from his own 30 yard line, to connect with Reuben Randal on a 40 yard completion and a first down, with 2 minutes to go in the game, that kept the ball out of the hands of Alabama, and thus, won the game.

I had to take a step back this season and realize it was really Miles that I didnt like. I was focused on Jefferson, but it wasnt his fault he wasnt good. Miles had his hand forced to play the Lee after Lee stayed and bailed us out last year. Even though the entire fan base knew Lee was better, Miles refused to give the kid a chance. Lee was jerked very quickly in a similar situation to Monday night but, when the rolls were reversed, wasnt given the time of day. The likeness of the situations between the two Bama games and the double standards that were used are inexusable. I agreed Lee should have been pulled in the on Nov 5th, but not benched for the year. He got rattled. We saw Jefferson get even worse Monday Miles not only ignored it, but is making excuses for it afterward. What a joke.
