Miles was asked that question at his weekly press luncheon this week.

The question comes after the Tigers' 14-6 loss to the Florida Gators last Saturday. That was only the second time in seven games in which LSU didn't score a touchdown.

When asked if he is switching quarterbacks Miles said, "We're not so prone to discard him (Zach Mettenberger) for a mobile quarterback".

Miles went on to say, "Ideally, you'd like to have that quarterback in the game that gives a great advantage with him in the game and the ball in his hand as he dispenses it in the pass," Miles said. "We really think Zach is that guy. We just need to make sure we get the ball to the guy that has it coming, who by strategy the defense has left not as well covered. We need to catch it and advance the ball. If we do those things, we'll be fine."

Saturday is the annual Gold Game, as LSU faces South Carolina, so be sure to wear your LSU gold no matter where you watch the game to show your support for the Tigers!

On his Facebook page Les Miles said, "We are going to play a very good football team. I want Tiger Stadium to be a loud and very difficult place to play for our opponent".
