I agree. Miles would have been embarrassed if Lee had come into the game and performed well. He would then be revealed as the poor evaluator of talent that he is. Assuming Miles actually believed that JJ was the better quarterback, he was clearly and obviously mistaken. And I have yet to see anyone who thinks Lee didn't deserve a chance in the BCS championship game. The only remaining explanation is irrational. So yes, folks, I do think that Miles didn't want to be embarrassed by a successful performance by Lee.

You are ludicrous! Lee could not handle Bama's speed, cannot move back there, has happy feet, throws off his back foot, would have been overwhelmed and become a turnover machine. I think JJ should have stayed in, but an effort should have been made to move the pocket and have him throw 4-5 deep balls...he can move. Also, the option attempts were grotesque...having him pull up out of the option a few times and throw (the D was sucked-up big time) could have helped in several ways.

LSU's players disagree with you.

So would most knowledgeable football people.

J Lee wouldn't be headed to the Hula Bowl if he didn't have the talent.

Put your JJ pompoms down. He never had the character to be a bigtime QB. A must at any level.

JJ - 1 int, 1 fumble, 2 fumbled snaps, 15 yards on 14 carries

JJ made the defense look a whole lot better than they were

For you to be right, then no sport could ever have a comeback win due to going to a "lesser" player. If the starter can't get it done, just quit. Right, Les?

JJ DID NOT handle Bama's speed, couldn't move back there, had happy feet, threw like shite, was overwhelmed unlike any QB I've ever seen, and was a turnover machine.

And you thought it was good to leave him in.
