1. 14-7 at half time against Western Kentucky is far from comfortable. We turned it on in the second half eventually, but that first half performance was poor and something we hadn't seen all season.
Did you miss the Kentucky game? That was as much a snoozer as WKU.

You can see what you want to see but our offense didn't look good against Kentucky or Miss st.

TBob gets a 15 yd penalty on first drive. Not on the QB!

Defense played lackluster allowing WVU to drive and keep the ball away from the offense. Not the QB's fault.

Fumble on special teams. Not QB's fault.

We just played bama and came out a little flat which is generally expected after such a huge game. We won 42-9 and had the best offensive output of the season. Deal with it those are the facts.

It's always everyone's fault but JJ's, right?
You really are pathetic.

I think there's really only 1 reason...

He was always the starting QB until he got suspended. This means the coaches felt going into this season that JJ was the best option at QB for this team to win a championship. And the Bama game sort of proved them right.

some poor decisions by Les (The Ole Miss debacle being a main proponent of this).


he made a bad decision.. but in his defense, there WAS enough time left on the clock to spike the ball. whoever was keeping time fricked up.

He threw 7 tds last season.....SEVEN, 10 INTs


He only threw for 4 TDs in the regular season

He took a sack on that play. It's not like the penalty took away something.

And it doesnnt matter if he had thrown a td....a 15yd penalty still would have been enforced.

Miles wanted it from the get go. Loyalty to JJ, but no layalty to JL for 1st 4 games

This has absolutely nothing to do with "loyalty". Some of you people crack me up.
Les Miles wants to win every game on the schedule. He will not sacrifice winning for loyalty. If he wanted JJ from the get go, it's because he and his offensive coaches think JJ gives the team the best chance to win. Period. Why is that so difficult for some of you to understand?

I'm also a fan of a productive LSU offense. That's achieved most efficiently, effectively & consistently with Lee in the game

I would say there is insufficient evidence this season to state this as boldly as you are trying to do.

Because Miles decision is different from their own. They can't look past there own conclusions and assume there must be another factor in the equation, other than what happens on the football field. I can't explain why Lee didn't play until the 4th Qtr. If I was the coach, I would have started Lee. But I don't think favoritism is the answer simply because I don't know exactly, though I think I have a good idea, why Miles played JJ almost the entire game.

Not only is that not born out by what has been called this season, no one who knows football could possibly think that way. Something was different about the WKU game. Why is that so difficult for you to understand?

Since JJ has been eligible, look at the starts and snaps.
