What's curious bout it when your team is going 13-0?

Can you give a team in college football who you have seen doing some kinda special/more than normal developing of their #3 QB while that team is going 13-0?

Look, the beef with Miles, if you have to have one, should be directed toward the fact that we haven't had a consistently good QB since he kicked RP off the team in 08.

But I think the teams record/success since that time certainly should show to any wishing to be objective that LSU has been pretty damn effective in using mediocre QB play to bring bout elite team like results.

Les is great but aren't there any lessons to be learned from how last season concluded?

Coaches are always, always, always evaluated on not only what they actually accomplish but what they also could have accomplished (within reason). We had already beaten Bama so is it unreasonable to think we could defeat them? Nope.

We had an awesome season and won the SEC. Great (and it was great; unbelievable feeling standing in TS and seeing 12-0 on the scoreboard) but we could have and should have done more.

My beef with Les is that he took an O that was used for eight weeks, served us well, and was maturing (of which JJ was an integral part of the maturation) and mothballed it and replaced it with an O that made JJ the centerpiece. That was stupid. Our QB situation wasn't as bad as many make it out to be last season.
