re: I'll ask it. Why did Mett get no meaningful snaps last year?

I asked why he did not play when the outcome of the game was not seriously in question. Do you just not get the question?
Yeah, how many times do we need to reiterate that he was 3rd string and 3rd string quarterbacks don't get snaps in games. Neither do 2nd string players for the most part. Why are you having difficult with this concept. How many 3rd string quarterbacks in the SEC took meaningful snaps yesterday?

I suppose you have experience managing an SEC team. Forget about the 13-0 start.

I guess because he lacked experience, knowledge of the plays, and presented more risk than people realize when we were continuing to win.
He could have had the knowledge and experience if he had been given it earlier in the season.
I like CLM and glad he is our coach, but he misplayed the qb situation last year.

Wasn't it more important for Lee to get meaningful snaps at that point?

How do you even know what our results would have been if Mett is the quarterback? You can make as many unfounded assumptions as you want of what could have been had Mett played based on his play last night against UW, but the simple fact of the matter is that you, nor I, actually know.

From a talent standpoint, absolutely. From an experience and offensive understanding standpoint, I doubt it. I think the latter has value and helped us have our best regular season ever. I'm certainly not content with the eventual outcome, but Mett or Lee or anyone else wouldn't have won us that game IMO. We played not to lose and they had nothing to lose. It cost us.
I see your point and agree with most of what you said. But I just can't see our offense last year being too complicated for ZM to figure out. It was a very basic offense. And JJ made terrible reads all year. Better yet, his first read wouldn't be open, and he'd take off running.
After last night, I have to believe ZM would have been an upgrade in every phase of the QB position.
But I'm just a fan, watching my team.
edited to change my wording about our offense last year.

I am a fan, not CLM's boss. He does not need to explain anything to me, or any of us fans. However, for you suggest fans should not be upset with the reason and way the crystal was loss last year is irrational.

Well, Mr. Authority, or should I call you Coach Miles, how do you explain the first rate arse whipping that LSU received because "3rd string quarterbacks don't get snaps in games? BTW, where is it written that "3rd string quarterbacks don't get snaps in games."? Would that be the "World of Football According to Tiger Authority"?
Wow. The depths of ignorant hubris know no boundaries.

It would be much easier for you to explain how LSU was 13-0 leading to that game and won the SEC.....

Tell me a team that did it last year....minus the one's that had an injury.

Your continued condescending douchery in each post is tired and played out.
Can you please find me an example of a 3rd string quarterback in the SEC, or really any conference for that matter, getting an abundance of snaps in games that was not a result of an injury to the first two quarterbacks during the game?
I'll hang up and listen awaiting another condescending non-answer from you. prick.

How many SEC teams have their best qb as 3rd string when the first two are some of the worst in school history?

I'm not directing any invective (or anything else negative) toward CLM. He's the winningest coach in LSU history, he has the highest winning percentage of any coach in school history, and our team went 13-1 and won an SEC Championship last year. Why would I question his judgment?. . . Do I wish our offense had done better in the NCG? Sure. But do I think I know the team, the players, and the game of football better than the winningest head coach in school history? Absolutely not. Did Bill Belichick cost the Patriots the 2000 season by starting Drew Bledsoe over Tom Brady?
Further, we have another dominant team this year. I'd much rather look forward to our bright future than to linger and obsess over our 1 loss last year.
Let it go,

I don't follow your logic at all, and bet most FANS & Asst coaches do either. It's like your taking up for "BAD DECISIONS/JUDGEMENT of our brilliant(?) HC.

How many teams have douche fans complaining about a QB after winning the SEC and going 13-0....and then losing to a better team on THAT night in the Dome?
We DID beat em in Tuscaloosa......correct? Didn't JJ have the most success in that game?
I agree that Mett seems to be a better QB...but I'm not so blinded as to why Miles stayed with the two Sr's.
Posted on 9/9/12 at 4:50 pm to White Tiger
So we could have him this year because Miles knew he'd be one and done.
Miles figured we were winning last year without him, no need to frick the team in the future because if Rivers was starting this year, oh boy.

Need to use the quote function because I have no clue what you're referencing.

You are correct, we cannot KNOW. However, one could guess that playing your best player gives one the best chance to win.
Are you guys just defend CLM at all cost guys? I do not understand the defense of Mett not playing more last year when the 2 Sr. qb's were doing so poorly.
JL did pretty good until the AL game, but JJ was a horrible qb. He will not go down as the worst simply because he had a great team around him.
