Now, to address the actual game. I would like to say we could afford to do as already mentioned, trot Tyler out there for 1 MAYBE 2 drives
No. You can't trot russell out and waste two possessions against LSU. You trot Dak out there, the guy who appears best for the job. If he doesn't work out, try Russell out. He's a passer. You don't bring the runner in after you are down, especially if he is the better option. I love Tyler, but people have to stop acting like we owe him a start. Start Dak. Let Russell come in and sling it if Dak isn't working. This isn't rocket surgery. And it's what Mullen will do.

Gimme a phuckin break. If he could run, he would have rushing yards. All qb's face the same thing.

In conclusion, what seems to be overlooked (sans when darkhorse brought it up and no one took note because most of what he says is a little ridiculous) is the fact that if the playcalling were the same for Russell as it has been for Dak the past three games, I believe Russell could be successful.
If Mullen or Koenning were ever gonna call a good game with Russell behind center, they would have already done it. The fact is that they don't or can't when Russell is in the game. I'm not saying Russell shouldn't play. He should definitely come in the ballgame and mix things up at some point.

I'm not sure if you're just looking to argue with me, but you pretty much just said exactly what I did in the entirety of my post.
You left that out.
All I did is say the stats were misleading. Never did I say he was successful when running.
What of this do you actually disagree with?

However, I'm just not sure we can afford to give those drives to Russell if he does indeed fail. Dak will need a drive or two to get things going if Russell stalls the offense and 4-5 possessions into the game may be too late.
