Led greatest comeback in LSU history vs Troy Rallied to take Bama into OT

---

against Troy????? , why did we not put up enough points prior to having to make a comeback?

Rallied for OT against Bama , who in the hell fault you think it was that we were down in the first place? Lee was intercepted 3 times in regulation, one for a pick six. He was then intercepted in the endzone in OT, throwing up shot for grabs.

In discussing year one of playing, Lee DID NOT get better throughout the year. His first game, was his best game, and he deteriorated the rest of the season ala Jennings.

AND PEOPLE STILL DONT UNDER STAND THAT LEE WAS LED WITH EXPERIENCED PASS CATCHERS. I mean my GOD that gives him a whole lot more help than what Jennings had to work with, and he still failed miserably.

So I say all this to say, Lee improved, Jennings can too.

Lee actually improved. Have seen zero improvement from Jennings.

Lee didn't improve game to game.

He improved season to season Along with any other qb in the history of the game.

Something this board won't allow Jennings to do.

So you hate LEE but LOVE AJ...Hmmmmm......

I've already addressed this. I don't think he would have thrown near the same # of interceptions. We were airing it out under him because of our defense.

---

On a yards per play and points per play basis, our 2014 defense was not significantly different from the 2008 unit. In fact, take away the Lee picks and it may have been almost identical.

The difference between 2008 and 2014 was the commitment to the running game..

2014 defense was not significantly different from the 2008 unit.

2008 vs. 2014 total defense:

2008 #9

2014 #1

almost 700 more yards given up through the air in 2008
almost 500 more yards given up on the ground in 2014

I think the rushing defense got a ton better once welter got benched

The difference between Jennings and Lee is that Jennings took the high percentage low-risk plays, and Lee dug himself a hole to get out of with trying to force some passes.

---

The difference between Lee and AJ is that Miles had more confidence to let Lee make some plays and AJ doesn't have what it takes for them to let him run ANY high risk plays.... You can throw your stats out the window when it comes to this debate.......

This years ol wasn't that great unti the UF game and was horrible in the Arkansas game. It was dominate in the middle part of season.

Thanks for pointing out that LSU is behind the times since freshman QB's are playing all over college football with a helluva lot less talent surrounding them and a helluva lot cheaper coaching staff.

a coach you all hate and call a liar

This was a response to me, so why are you putting words in my mouth? Never said I didn't like coach and I have never called him a liar.

As for AJ, sure he can improve. Wouldn't shock me at all if he plays a little better next year. Do I think he'll be good enough to win a division title? No. Will Harris? Maybe, maybe not. But I want to find out. AJ's a great competitor but he cannot make all the throws and another year in the system isn't going to change that. You need a big arm to run Cam's offense. AJ doesn't have it. Furthermore, I've seen no promise from him. I've never seen him step up and make a big throw to help win the game, except for Arky '13, and maybe the pass to Dural on 3rd and 25 against UF (although there was no one within 15 yards of him). J Lee at least had a few moments like that. I could see, underneath all of his struggles, some real talent there. I don't see it with AJ. All of that said, I do think Les made the right decision in starting him after the Auburn game. But I think they were all waiting for Harris to catch up. If he really has, as it appears, that's the guy I want to see and I think that's the guy Les and Cam want to see. If he fails, give AJ back the ball.

He's 10-4 as a starter

This is only slightly above average at best.
