Ryan Perri-who?

LSU won a big game on Saturday night. Maybe more important, it might have found a quarterback to build around for the next four years. It’s not as if the program didn’t know what it had in redshirt freshman Jarrett Lee. He was one of the nation’s top recruits, when the Tigers plucked him out of Brenham (Tex.) High School two years ago. However, no coaching staff really knows what it has until the lights are on and the road crowd is trying to intimidate from every corner of the stadium.

For reasons that extend well beyond the numbers, Lee was remarkable in the first big test of his college career. He bounced back from a terrible pick six in the second quarter to lead LSU to a monumental win over rival Auburn. Freshmen just don’t do that in SEC games of this magnitude. He hung tough in the pocket on a beautiful touchdown pass to Chris Mitchell that cut the lead to four points in the third quarter. On the game-winning touchdown pass in the final minute, he put the ball where only Brandon LaFell could make the grab. Lee always had the physical ability to play the position at this level, but on Saturday night, he proved to everyone in attendance that he also has the make-up, moxie, and maturity inherent to all great quarterbacks. LSU is going to win titles with Jarrett Lee under center. Because of the way the redshirt freshman performed on the Plains Saturday night after starter Andrew Hatch had his bell rung, those titles could come to Baton Rouge as early as this fall.

Yeah, and I bought those .com stocks in 2001, too.

[FONT=verdana, arial, sans serif] 5. I may be a little late to the party, but they can really play football down in the SEC.

After years of defending the Big Ten in print and over the air waves, I submit fully to the SEC. All you have to do is look at the events of Saturday and in particular Saturday night. Start off with Georgia going out to Arizona State and giving the Sun Devils a thorough 27-10 spanking. It’s not only that they went out to Pac-10 country and won, it’s the way they did it. Mark Richt’s squad was not particularly impressive in the first half, but the second half was a different story. All the Sun Devils could get was one third-quarter touchdown in the first five minutes of the second half. Arizona State could muster nothing after that. Georgia looked every bit as dominating as they could possibly have hoped for prior to this visit to Tempe. [/FONT]
That was an excellent performance, but LSU and Auburn produced oohs and ahhs throughout the game. Auburn builds the double-digit lead at home and LSU keeps fighting. LSU takes the lead, Auburn comes back and then Les Miles’ team gets the win on Jarrett Lee’s 18-yard TD pass to Brandon LeFell with 1:03 left. Of course, LSU closes the deal with its defense.
That’s what SEC football is about and even Big Ten dinosaurs have come around.

Lee is going to be good and I will be cheering hard for him, but if Perrilloux starting at LSU right now then LSU is the favorite to win the BCS CG and Ryan is getting Heisman talk.

What a dumbass...

you dont have to hope for the demise of a kid because he's an idiot.

I just hope he succeeds and makes the best of what he has left.

Im sure he wished he would have been born with a little more brains and a little less athletic talent if he had his choice but god ran out of one and overloaded on the other.

it happens.

At least he stayed home when he could have gone elsewhere. I hope that the best player in Louisiana comes to LSU EVERY year. I hope he succeeds.
