re: Is it possible someone payed Jordan Jefferson to throw the Bama rematch?

Idiots clamoring for Lee to get in, forget the past four years of him fricking up against Alabama. Miles knew they if JJ couldn't beat them with his legs, then we were fricked.

Miles sucked that night. Period. I remember us calling a run up the middle on 3rd and 10 with Spencer Ware on the 2nd series of the game. I recall us running JC Copeland (who had 1 carry for 0 yards on the year) on 3rd and 4th near the 40 in the 4th quarter when the game was just 15-0. The fact that those kinds of play calls happened was a joke.

The worst was Miles punting it on 4th and 9 with over 3 minutes left in the National Championship with no tomorrow for seniors, etc. I would have rather seen him put Lee in than quit competing. He quit.

As for Lee, we'll never know if he would've sucked or done something. Bama played a great defensive game, so it would've been tough either way. It would have been hard to do worse on offense than what we were doing. I wonder how Lee felt. He stuck it out at LSU when people were cutting him down like a tree throughout a good part of his time at LSU. I didn't think he would ever help LSU at the QB spot and we ended up relying on him to start and lead us through most of the season undefeated. That dude stuck it out and led us in Ws, passing yards, completion % and TDs that year. I think he deserved the shot that night based on his overall performance that year and how ineffective we were in that game. That's why you have more than one QB on the team. I didn't think it was fair to him or the team to not even try putting him in after a certain point.
