re: Les Miles and QBs-will he use them effectively?

The offense did to a point, but it stopped throwing in the second half. Again, why the apparent reluctance to throw in game situations? Is it not the best type of "practice" which occurs in games. I do not understand.

you must not have watched Jamie howard throw 4 ints @ Au when we were up by 21 and lost the game in the second half.

you must not have watched florida, coached by s.s., against Au in 1993. He's up by 6 late in the fourth and throw's, (to run up the score) au ints, Au wins. Florida loses out on a chance of n.c.

Tenn. 1998, s.e.c. championship game. Arkansas has the game won. Clint Sterner drops back to pass, loses his balance, fumbles, Tenn recovers. Wins the game and n.c.

You secure the win. you don't "practice" in a game. The game is to win or lose, not experiment. Practice is to practice.
