Lee

I'm sure Pittman will have more on the game, but i really don't have much to say about beating Tulane.  All that struck me is that this was perhaps Lee's worst game as an LSU player.  He went 8 for 20 for 99 yards with a TD and yet another INT which turned into a TD for the defense.  He had one nice drive to start the second half, but other than that, Lee had a bad game.

Because of this bad game, the outcome was in doubt for way too long, meaning Miles couldn't get Jefferson into the game until late, when all he did was hand off to Ridley (which he did admirably).  So, going into Bama, we have a redshirt freshman QB who is coming off his worst game as a starter and worse, will probably be mercilessly booed the moment something goes wrong.  To back him up, we have a true freshman who has handfed the ball off a few times. 

I'm really, REALLY nervous about the Bama game.

Don’t be nervous. We’ll win, and then you’ll be talking about what a badass Les Miles is.

I don't feel that bad about our chances next week either,

but I have to agree that we saw little tonight to feel great about, save some good output from the running game, albeit against lesser competition. The boos from the crowd (toward Lee) were an absolute disgrace. It’s not like he’s trying to throw pick sixes. Like many others have mentioned here (and elsewhere), it’s a matter of inexperience, and we can’t move the clock forward any faster.

I too would have liked to have seen a little more of Jefferson tonight, just in case we are forced to throw him in next weekend.

I was at the game Saturday

and I never heard the crowd boo Lee.

I was not at the game

but could have sworn I heard that, I think in the 3rd quarter. If not, I stand corrected, and indeed I hope that is the case.

I don't understand the boos either...

Lee is trying, and let’s face it, we don’t have another option. Hatch is not an SEC QB. Lee will be. There is never a time when it is appropriate to boo your own team. You never know how that could impact a future recruit.

Everyone has the right to boo, just understand, at the college level, you are doing an incredible amount of harm to your team.
