No one saw that coming

I just knew it was gonna be max

Puttmail_393•65 months

Max is weak and garbage just like Brennan was. Brennan took one hot and is out for the season. May needs stronger faster QBs to compete and play at an elite level. We tired of losing to bama, you don’t like it become a UL fan. Simple. Harrison was the only OK black qb out of the many at lsu.

Puttmail_393, I've only followed LSU since the early 90's but who is the black QB named Harrison that was the only OK QB for LSU? What about Herb Tyler, Rohan Davey and Jamarcus Russell? Were they OK?

I hate all of the woke crap, but screw those of you saying that TJ is only starting because of the color of his skin. That's BS. The kid has a lot of upside. I'm looking forward to seeing him play.

Tommy Patel•65 months

My hope is that the OC will script the 1st and 2nd series and the defense shows up so this kid does not get swallowed by having to make too many decisions and hold the ball too long. It would be nice to have a descent run game for these occasions too.

bapple•65 months

Ready to see that cannon of an arm in action. Geaux tigers.

SC bringing 10 in the box. Gonna say: we dare u to throw

Cajunboy46•65 months

Oh well here we go again all I can say is go getem “Big Guy”

Puttmail_393•65 months

He may be another jamarcus Russel. Give the guy a chance. Obviously he’s the best we have at this point. Miles took one hit and is out for the season; “talk about weak”.

Tigers4Lyfe•65 months

No where does it say or suggest that he's out for the season fool.

LSU Patrick•65 months

Hmmmm. Maybe he started for a reason!

CanebreakCajun•65 months

Just protect either them O-line and make some holes for our RBs.

Laffy Taffy Tiger•65 months

cant believe our oline is as bad as it was decent last year we are supposed to have a great oline coach is he not doing his job

themunch•65 months

Do work

BleedgurpleTX•65 months

He fees food about the offense?! That’s not the issue... Duh!

reauxl tigers•65 months

Interesting. Wonder if there’s any rhyme or reason or if he’ll just be the first one to get snaps.

DlineU•65 months

Forgot what I was gonna say the tits in the and above did it

Puttmail_393•65 months

Brennan is a little better than finley, but after spending 4 years with the team I expected for him to be. However, for all you pro max Johnson starters. The proof is in the pudding, Finley is light years ahead of max Johnson! Facts

Displaced•65 months

Glad I got SC +7 early in the week.

Vernonbrew22•65 months

Could be ugly. Real ugly SC

Vernonbrew22•65 months

1-3 tonight and easy to see!

Water Mocassin•65 months

Smh

Puttmail_393•65 months

Why you shaking your head the best player will start. I’m shaking my head at you but your know what. This doesn’t surprise me. Were tired of losing 8 games in a reaux to bama. The best man starts; screw the politics!

RightWingTiger•65 months

Putt - You do remember that we beat Bama (& every other team we faced) last year right? WTF??
