Yep. And when he wasn't getting it done, Miles put in Jefferson. In the NCG, Jefferson stunk it up from the very first play until the very last one, playing the entire game.

The difference in both games was the offensive line play. The line showed up in the second half of the GOTC. They didn't show up at all in the BCSNCG. As bad as Jefferson was, the running game was even worse. But hey let's place the entire blame on one player when in fact the entire offensive unit didn't play worth a frick.

JJ made 65% of the throws within the gamepplan. Don't kid yourself Lee would have done better with all that pressure. A couple more int wouldn't have helped the situation.

Everyone discussing this is making the same mistake - debating which QB should have played. We would have lost that game even if we had Tom Brady. Our offensive line was out classed. It was a weakness all year long. The reason for our offensive success was because the defense was so powerful that it broke the other team's spirit.

The talent level on that oline was simply not up to LSU/Alabama standards. We could not run the ball, and we could not protect the passer. You can't even begin to evaluate skill positions under that scenario. As good as LSU was that year, Bama was just a little better. Accept it.
