Michael Ford will be playing on Sundays, so I'd really like to see a lot more of him on Saturdays.

did anyone notice that the first interception came after a bad snap and Lee had to pick the ball up off the ground before throwing? That barely got mentioned and it NEVER got re-shown. I think after the third or fourth replay, Gary might have said, "I think... was that snap LOW or something?" It wasn't just low, it was on the freaking ground. Hard to blame Lee totally for that..


a low snap is hardly an excuse to throw that shitty pass. Is that off the Rex Grossman highlight DVD?

How anyone could question Miles handling of the qbs at this point amazes me. We just beal Saban and the tide in their house and we are bitching about miles. Lsu fans are the worst.

JLee clearly was nervous and rattled. He got happy feet and rushed throws into INTs.

We needed JJ last night. Against a great D like Bama, you need the QB to be able to scramble out of a bad play or to create yards outside of the play call when it is stuffed. Only JJ could give us that last night. Miles made a great decision and JJ performed well.

JLee will be back throwing the ball next game. This is still a two QB system.

Sure would have been nice to have seen some bubble screens, flat passes to back, and a few more tight end dumps early in the game. This would have helped slow and spread Bama's LB and would have help Lee build confidence. Bama did a good job of this with the wheel routes to TR.

Les has been looking for an opening to bench Lee and $horty's defense gave it to him. Did anyone find themselves wishing for a couple of fade routes from JL to RR when we were down close? But, man, it sure helped having that dual threat in the red zone...


Wow you ave 9000 posts. If they have been all as terrible as this one, you have inflicted a lot of pain on TD. Let's just do a quick recap: Lee looked terrible (despite being awesome previously this season) and handed the ball to Bama twice. JJ comes in and actually gets the offense moving and LSU wins, and your conclusion is that Miles is part of an anti Lee conspiracy. It actually depresses me that people like you can procreate.

Alabama's secondary was covering our w/r's all night, and the passing game just wasn't there, so les needed JJ to come in, and open it up on the ground. That is the only reason JL didn't go back into the game after the 2nd int. JL will be fine, and thank goodness we have a 2qb system, so if one avenue is closed, we can go an entirely different way..

you tell me a QB that is allowed to throw the ball 30 times a game wont be more comfortable and develop into a better passer than one that throws 10-15x/game


First priority is to win the game. Period.

Actually, not that hard. The kid threw it right into coverage . . . low snap or no low snap. Just a mistake.
