    WHY WAS MARCUS RANDALL TAKEN OUT AFTER LEADING US DOWN THE FIELD FOR A TD!!!!!!, he had a lot of confidence and as you saw after sitting the rest of the first half, he never got it back
    also, i know the loss shouldnt be blamed entirely on the quarterbacks, but russell and randall missed WIDE OPEN RECEIVERS ALL DAY, coach saban needs to recruit a qb or pray that russell can develop to the point where he can hit a wide open receiver, missed tackles KILLED US, as awhole we need to execute our game 100 times better on offense if we want to beat miss st. because right now the way we executed today, we would struggle with miss st

    I really believe JaMarcus is the guy. He is a freshman and will cost us some wins but that will pay off in years 2,3 and 4.

    Neither QB is any good!

    Randall is terrible & will never amount to anything. Russell may be o.k. next year, but if anyone expects anything from him this year, you are mistaken. Saban got caught with no qb this year!!!

    With Russell on the field, LSU has more options on offense. With Randall on the field, LSU is handcuff in what they can call. Randall has yet to complete a bubble screen. He is 0 for 3 this year on possibly the easy throw in football. Randall has yet to show he has any vision at all.

    Two points that everyone but Saban knows:

    1.) Russell should be the starter and not be replaced.

    2.) You do not bench the other QB after leading the team down the field and playing as well as he can. Saban RUINED Randall's rhythm with that STUPID MOVE.

    I don't think I could stand watching Randall play an entire game. Jimbo and Nick have no faith in him throwing the ball. If Randall starts we won't score more than 16 or so points per game.

    Before this game there definatly was a HUGE difference in the passing Efficiency. Maybe Saban was looking for more passing yards when Russel was in. We all have seen Randalls arm, and it's not looking that hot.

    Exactly!! LSU is scared to throw the ball with Randall in the game.

    16 points would have won this game...anytime LSU gives up 10 points on defense they should win...period...LSU needs to stick with Russell and let him develop...they clearly do not trust Randell throwing the ball.
