LSU QBs posted 2,135 with 21 touchdowns last season

McCarron posted 2,634 yards with 16 touchdowns.


(Ignoring the fact that the 2 bum QBs we had posted more scoring than AJ) The passing numbers boil down to a difference of 49 yards per game in favor of Alabama. I'm confident Mettenberger can add at least 49 yards per game to the LSU pass offense.



McCarron: First Year starter

Lee/Jefferson: Seniors that had both gotten serious playing time since 2008.

Jefferson posted a similar 2,000+ yard season with 17TD and 7 INTS in his first season as a starter. Then he preceded to go full retard on the league for the next 2 years.

This thread is stupid it reminds of the summer after JJ had a good game in the Chicken Bowl and was better than Mcelroy. How any LSU fan can have any confidence in this staff to actually develop a QB is beyond me.

For those selling AJ short as if he is some 3 star McElroy type of prospect. He was an elite 11 QB top 100 prospect and had national offers. By the way he was rated above Mett.

I seriously doubt Mett has made up ground while getting poor coaching at a nowhere Juco, and taking 3rd team reps at LSU under that horrible offensive staff. Mean while AJ was coached by a QB coach that got both Bamas last 2, 3 star QBs on NFL rosters. Not to mention all the in game experience he gained last yr. On the road in Happy Valley, the swamp, in the Dome.

If Mett was really so great he would have played period.

This seems like a good point you make. However, Alabama and LSU are different kinds of teams.

LSU is more a hybrid of Fla and Ala. If you put McC in at QB at LSU, I don't think he does one bit better than JJ or JL.

One thing to consider... how many TD passes did McC throw in 2 games against LSU? Same as JL and JJ last year against Alabama.

People are taking too much offense on both sides, and really, we're talking about 2 different teams and 2 different play callers.
