i understood why miles stuck with jefferson in the bama game. I was upset that he didn't give lee the start the next game, but Jefferson has played a lot better then anytime the last 2 years and he has impressed me enough to not care that lee hasn't been in there. eric
Hypothetical. If Jefferson had been injured in practice the week before the 1st game would the sentiment be different? I've looked at it like Lee got more than what he would have if Jefferson had started day 1. I'm sure he is disappointed in the playing opportunities the last few weeks but this was Jefferson's team in the beginning and he earned the right to be back in it. I'd have liked to see Lee in for that second to last possession though. I think he earned that.
Honestly ... I had the same feeling as last year. Thank god for the Honey Badger coming back to life and changing the momentum of the game. Claiborne another int, badger with two forced fumbles, one a take away for a nice return. Frankly, Les has shown Lee absolutely NO RESPECT. At least he let him go in and take a knee at the end of the game .. on his final game in Tiger Stadium .. after getting this team through its first eight games undefeated while is JJ was out on suspension. I'm proud of the Tigers ... proud of JJ .. but I'm sorry, CLM has pretty much said .. thanks Lee, now go and sit on the bench where you belong. Sad.
If he is a man he will say thank you for the ring, it has been a honor being part of this great team. If he tells CLM to frak himself he is just a petty player and good riddance. LSU is about the team. This is why we win.
I have no desire to argue with LSU 12-0 but that's just stupid. Lee has handled far worse pressure last year and this year. He made two bad plays against Bama when trying to make something happen which happens to every QB including JJ in the game today.
None of this would have happened without Lee. And if he had a problem with coach he would have transferred. That boy has loyalty. I wish him the best in life. GEAUX ENJOY VICTORY!
THis ... and I called it a long time ago. Lee threw an int .. in comes JJ JJ throws and int ... in stays JJ. It's baised B.S. ... pure and simple.
You're right. It is biased to whoever the more effective QB is for that game and time...pure and simple.
JJ drove us for 2 TDs at that point and was driving us for a 3rd straight TD. We were absolutely rolling, offensively. And yes JJ made a decision he would like to take back, regarding the pick. Lee had 3 series and very little movement on offense against Bama. And threw a pick. You're being way way disingenuous about the competing circumstances.
