    That's because they didn't get they play in from the sidelines......you could see harris asking for the play, had nothing to do with Harris, but your welcome to blame him if you would like.

    I'm saying we started a freshman that couldn't beat barn, A&M started on that did. Both had the same shot. But then again, Fla beat UGA, A&M beat barn, Ark hasn't won an SEC game since John L Smith, etc. thats SEC football, you never know what you are gonna get week to week.

    Completely different system....you cant compare the two....A&M runs a 4 and 5 reciever set where as LSU runs 2 maybe 3 and sometimes 1 reciever paterns, A&M system is designed to create one on ones and mismatches with giving 4 & 5 options lsu is a pro style offense....way way different.

    How do we know we would have won Miss. St.? Harris may have played terrible had he been the starter. He came off the bench with nothing to lose and States defense quite playing hard because they thought they already won. Also how do we really know BH is ready to start Prime Time, it appears the shot he got rattled him pretty good. The view is a lot different from the stands. The coaches know what they are doing, Cam has been evaluating qb for a long time, if he thought Harris was the best option he would be out there. Read some of Harris' tweets, even he lacks confidence right now. He will know when he is ready and most importantly the coaches will know. Sit back and enjoy, I really believe Harris will be our starter if Jennings remains the same. Harris will improve at the right pace and win the job, or he won't and Jennings will play. If neither work out I am sure another one is on the way that will step up and take the reins. I know the coaches get under our skin because we want to see for ourselves who is better. The only way to do that is get invited to practice each day and you can see what they see. I'm not throwing rocks at anyone and I see the logic of some of the comments, but the fact is, it is out of our control. To be honest after the first game of the year and especially after Moo St. and the Barn, I thought we were a sinking ship. If for some reason we would win out and finish with only 3 losses, then I will tip my hat to the coaches for doing a remarkable job this season. This team was no where near ready for this season and we could easily have only 3 wins this year. I just hope one of these years we can put it all together and finish.

    Because he was the starter Red, and it looks a whole lot different when you have the 1st unit across from you. When you come off the bench against scrubs you look like a hero. Some don't see that.

    Cam also was fired because the offense in Baltimore wasn't working. He was replaced and Baltimore went on to win the Super Bowl . Bringing Cam into the discussion just opens up another can of worms.

    LSU ran more empty backs Sat than I've seen this year. As for mismatches, LSU had a mismatch all night with Quinn, he was open, an bama didn't have an answer. LSU strength this year is OL and RB. This is known, this is what got us through the game. A healthy Hilliard, at the end of the game is what I would have liked to have seen, who knows. Cam just wants a QB to manage the game and win it. He is paid to win games. It didn't take long for the Ravens to see they needed another Cam calling plays, so Kubiak was hired.

    The right play was called with Jones out of the backfield, same as the Ole Miss game when a TE who had never caught a pass before was called up. An yes, Jones caught more passes than anyone against Fla. He could have still been running.

    Last year the strength was QB, WR and RB. Mett would come to the line check the safeties, if they were over the top covering the WR's, Hill would run the ball, if they were in tight or close to the line, OBJ and Landry were his targets. Too easy. All 4 of these former players have and are starting in the NFL.

    This year we don't have that luxury, we have to run the ball with power, keep the defense off the field, cause everyone knows we are short on the DL, I did see a number of DL being played Sat night. But you play your strengths and try an minimize a weakness as hurting you.

    See above. You do know that Cam has a Super Bowl ring from the Ravens?
