you realize jarrett lee didn't win the LSU qb job in 2011 don't you? Baton Rouge's finest made jarrett the starter, not the coaches. funny thing about DNA, can solve 50+ year old crimes, but in BR, couldn't solve a month old bar fight. probably because they arrested a dude with wrong color shirt & went against eyewitness accounts from bouncers who knew & the bar owner. lee has a blind spot, it was well known. he wasn't invited to the NFL combine. that's why he threw 2 Ints at bama in short order. pretty decent in college when they kept it simple for him.
How short is your memory. He threw back to back picks against Bama and could not deal with the pressure. That's why he was pulled for JJ. Check his record, he did not play well against the better competition.
Lee did not win those 9 games. The defense crushed teams and the offensive line was outstanding as well. Lee choked at Bama when he was needed to make plays with his arm.
I seem to remember him playing pretty well against Alabama in 2010 and converting a huge 3rd down to Reuben Randle that iced the game deep in LSU territory. Don't sit there and act like Jordan Jefferson was just so much better. Jefferson was semi-successful in Tuscaloosa because Nick Saban doesn't know how to adjust gameplans mid game and didn't prepare for Jefferson.
Bama '10 - JL, 4-7, 67 yds, 0 td, -12 yds rushing; JJ, 10-13, 141 yds, 1 td, 7 for 27 yds rushing... we obviously won our games with o-line play and dominant d with these two... don't let your memory make JL better than he actually was... he was called "pick 6" for a reason... we have two young qbs who have and will continue to experience growing pains...
I'm not saying he was great but let's not say Jefferson was head and shoulders better. That's a farce, how bout we post the 2009 and 2012 game Jefferson numbers vs Bama when the fucktard couldn't get us past the 50.
2011 regular season vs Bama - Jefferson 6-10 67 yards 0 TDs 0 Int Quarterback rating 41.2 Rushing 11-43 no TDs January 9, 2112 vs Bama - Jefferson 11-17 53 yards, 0 TDs 1 INT Quarterback rating 4.9 Rushing 14 carries for 15 yards
This is the play I speak of often. In fact "he" was in the game for 1st and 2nd down of that series and shit the bed. Somehow had a t/o and brought Lee in for the pass because no way "he" was going to complete it.
