If you're looking for college football's Benedict Arnold, its Hanoi Jane, the man who gets off playing for the other team, look to LSU quarterback Jarrett Lee. We're now at halftime of the LSU/Alabama team and Lee has tossed his sixth interception returned for a touchdown this season. We spoke about this earlier this week and he's come through in a big way affirming our laserlike focus on his passing sins.The worst part is he almost surrendered a seventh in the first quarter when Alabama took a Lee interception back deep into LSU territory. Irony of ironies, he's the rare Texas-born quarterback playing poorly this year in college football. Must be the water in Louisiana?
Today's freebie was given to Alabama safety Reshad Johnson, who took the early Christmas present back 54 yards to tie the game at 14-all. Johnson was also the lucky recipient of the earlier interception and took it back to the LSU 15-yard-line.
Look after the jump for a rundown of Lee's other many gifts to opponents that led to scores.
Auburn's Gabe McKenzie (24 yards), Florida's Brandon Spikes (52 yards), Georgia's Darryl Gamble (40 yards), Georgia's Darryl Gamble (53 yards), Tulane's Travis Burks (43 yards), and today's pick six to Alabama's Reshad Johnson (54 yards).
Here's thinking more are on the way.

I'd like to think it's just youth considering he's only 19, but then you have guys the same age doing tremendous things for their team (i.e. Sam Bradford for OU)

True! What can you expect from a great team, that decides to play only one quarter ("the fourth") of a decisive and publicized game! I Hope Lee enjoys his win (our loss). This is a major setback! the question is "Will or can we even, come back?".
