All this is is Les not wanting to hand the job over to a freshmen from the first snap. Jennings and Harris will both play, but Harris will be the starter by game three.

Hey remember when both Jefferson and Lee tore Auburn a new one in 2011? I do. That was fun.

Wisconsin's front 7 is less experienced than LSU. You all know we are going to run it down your throat and you still won't be able to stop it.

It's like people fail to realize just 3 years ago LSU was involved in one of the biggest smash mouth, line of scrimmage, physical games in the history of football c'mon people. LSU has and always will live or die off superior line play and super physical football. Badgers may have a chance, but it's a small one.

I am very opposed to the 2 QB system. I personally think Jennings will start the season and if he does well he stays, if he is garbage then it goes to Harris.

I'd rather have a clear cut guy who is our main qb but we'll see. I'm not worried though. Why would I be?

Yes. 2 QB's under center makes for confusion, not to mention having 12 players on the field.

Know how I know you don't have a clue about LSU fans? We can create a crisis thread over what socks mean.

We aren't freaking out over this because most of think the True Freshman will win the job, but Jennings deserves every chance and Cam will give to to him. But hey, if you think you won't have any trouble stopping LSU, okay then.

Oh okay. These must be the ref and the back judge.

Worry about regaining control of your streets, we'll worry about our QB situation.

They're a physical rushing offense. They replace their entire defensive front 7. I'm not concerned about the Wiscy defense running roughshod over one offensive lines in the country.

Am I concerned that there will be growing pains? Yes.
Am I concerned that Wisconsin's defensive ability to "punch you in the mouth" will be problematic? Not in the slightest.

Harris will shine in the opener and the case will be closed.

I would prefer to already have a starter picked out, but as long as they are settled on ONE guy by the ULM game. I'm fine with it. Gives the choice a full game to get reps, before MSU. Then New Mexico, before the rest of SEC play.

only if they're on the field at the same time

in all seriousness I think the team will be better if they pick a single starter and stick with him. it just gives you clarity and your team a more defined personality to develop

lol. I hope you aren't this stupid. We did exactly that to the tune of 24 wins and a 24-3 record in two straight years.

Not only that, Michigan State played two QBs last year until they established a #1 against ND. They finished the season 13-1with back to back wins over OSU and Stanford. The winning QB finished with a stat line of 2755/22/6.
