QB change at LSU could be on the way

LSU may be 4-0 and ranked No. 12 in the country, but that doesn't mean Les Miles isn't facing a tough decision with his quarterback situation. The Tigers are 115th in the country in passing offense, averaging just 110 yards per game. Jordan Jefferson hasn't thrown for more than 100 yards in any of the past three games. So, does Miles stick with Jefferson and hope for improvement or turn to junior Jarrett Lee, who has patiently waited for another shot after throwing 16 interceptions in 2008? "We're watching Lee continue to improve," Miles said Wednesday. "I think there's a want to reward him for competing and get him on the field. I can't tell you exactly when that will happen, but I can tell you that in short order we'll reward his competition and let him play. "It's not in regard to Jordan Jefferson in any way. It's the responsibility, Lee has shown in competing at the spot that's really encouraging the coaching staff to play him." "The reality of it is that we've hit some passes that we've not put our hands around," he said. "We put ourselves, certainly in the last game, in some long-yardage situations, which it's no fun to play quarterback in that position. And then the quarterback mis-threw some balls. So there's a need to improve really across the board on the offensive side to make the passing game better."
