LSU is better with Flynn than Russell

"You want some numbers? In 11 games the previous two seasons against ranked teams, LSU was 7-4 with Russell -- and he threw nearly as many interceptions (11) as touchdown passes (13). Those four big-game meltdowns -- against Tennessee, Florida, Georgia and Auburn -- prevented the most talented team in the most talented conference from winning anything other than a couple of meaningless bowl games."

IMHO Flynn will win the big game where Russell struggled, his good running will help him in the tough games, I heard on ESPN today that he may not play tonight due to a slight injury but would play for sure if it was a tougher opponent.

Just something to keep an eye on in tonight's game.
