re: Miles announces Jennings will start

You know you can argue these silly arguments that Miles doesn't want to destroy Harris' confidence (as he destroys Jennings confidence) but in no way can you argue Jennings deserves to start based on his play in the MSU game. It was atrocious.

Moreover, in every game he's started, he's shown horribly inconsistent play. His only consistence is he has 1 good play for every 3 bad plays.

While you can't compare this to the JJ v. Lee fiasco since Jennings is better than JJ (who had 1 good play to every 9 bad plays) and we don't know Harris' capabilities, this smells if Miles hard head stupidity we saw then.

It's ok to shuffle the deck at QB like you do at every position. It's a good idea to experiment against rent-a-wins. It's ok to admit you're wrong. Miles seems incapable of doing this.

Of course Jennings is starting.

Harris will likely play a drive or two late in the 4th, handing the ball off and possibly throwing once.

Les will also name Jennings the starter against Auburn, as expected.

Going into the game, Auburn will feel as confident as ever, completely understanding the schemes that best exploit Jennings weaknesses.

As LSU's offense runs out for the first drive, we'll see #6 running into the huddle. Football will never be the same. Malzahn will shite his pants on national television, an event which will mark the beginning of the BH6 era. Harris throws for 500+, 5 tds and eventually wins the heisman.

Everything Les Miles says thereafter will be suspect and fuel a number of conspiracy theories/interpretations.

Something like that.

Dreaming is good for the soul.

The downside is that the situation doesn't get any better, now you have two badly performing QBs. Where do you go then?

If we can't run, and the first QB can't hit wide open receivers, and if somehow even the backup sucks, we lose. We lose a lot.

I don't think you guys understand, we can't defend the run, we can not run, our first string QB is mediocre and a game manager, if Harris is not good, we are looking at a losing season. I choose to believe he is good. I have seen several young guns have to play because the starters we here injured, and they performed very well. IMO, Jennings is not explosive enough to put the team on his back. Harris may not be either. and I haven't ruled that out, but if he is not, we tank in the SEC. I'm talking 1-3 wins tops after the NMST game.

All we can do now is just wait and see.

because AJ will be gone we should go with him only?

Rewatching the game I came to the same conclusions. AJ made some plays but mostly did not and took too much time and then at times was overrun because, like when LSU gets someone in long yardage we bring it, due to not making plays prior. I do not see the advantage of leaving a player on the bench that could change the outcome of the game.

AJ has had one, count them one SEC start. Or have I missed something?

Derp......bc the lines are the problem perhaps?

well that sounds like a probably we can address in recruiting. if aj wants to leave then fine. I would rather the better player play and then pick up a good recruit than pander to keep a player.
