Why wait until a road game against AU to give a true freshmen his first start?

Wouldn't it have better to start him last week? Or let Jennings start one more week, even if they split first team reps in practice with the intent of bringing Harris off the bench?
Sure seems like Miles is putting a lot of pressure on this kid. Auburn's defense isn't as good as it was last year, but it's better than anything LSU has seen so far. And it's on the road.
Edit: Keep piling on if you like, Auburn. I won't edit my original post, because I should have to suffer the indignity of being so horribly wrong about your defense. I will note, however, that I have admitted my obvious error. I was very surprised by how bad your defensive numbers last year were. Mea Culpa.

Our defense isn't as good as it was last year based on what?
It's not like it was so awesome last year, and that unit has exceeded expectations this year considering how many key players have missed time.

I haven't looked at the stats, but I bet they back me up. It seems to me that y'all really miss Dee Ford.

We have one of the best rushing D's in the country. And I think T Reed is tied with LSU's D in Ints. Might want to edit the OP

Backs are against the wall. Plain and simple. If we want to salvage some of this season then it starts in Jordan-Hare on Saturday. May not win but the kid will get a great experience playing in an opposing stadium.

Uh I think our defense is significantly better honestly. We have a pretty stout run defense

What planet have you been living on? Miles hasn't started him till now due to not wanting to put any pressure on this kid.... But when your starting QB turns the ball over three times vs NM State and then Harris comes off the bench to lead our O on 7 straight td drives???? Not to mention the remarkable come back Harris almost pulled off vs State, where once again our starter looked awful. Miles waited as long as he could to start him.... Which eventually got boos from the crowd last Sat. He knew he had no choice to pull the trigger after what happened the last two games. He gives us the best chance to win... Period.

97% of LSU fans agree. I guess miles just wanted to see if jennings could execute. he could not and he gave him every chance to do so.
3 QB t/o's in one single quarter.

Because Les cares about his players and wanted to give AJ another chance.

So, I just looked at the stats.
I was very wrong! I did not realize your defense was so bad last year! I just remember Dee Ford giving us so much trouble, despite the fact that we scored some points. In the Auburn games I've watched this year, I haven't thought your defense looked all that great.
Foot in mouth for me!

We do miss Dee Ford but the pass rush is the only true glaring issue we are having right now, but we are expecting to get Lawson back sooner or later.
Our secondary is light years ahead of where it was this time last year, even with Whitehead out.

He played three straight qtrs and helped our team put 49 points in the score board, he got some pretty valuable experience.

They don't. They've gone from #12 (SEC) total D in 2013 to #4 (SEC) total D in 2014. You're wrong about Auburn's D, they are good.
