The Arrival of Zach Mettenberger
Three weeks ago, LSU’s offense essentially resembled the same unit that had taken the field under Les Miles since 2009. That is, a strong rushing attack with a passing game who’s calling card was its ability to ruin a sound offensive gameplan. Zach Mettenberger’s quarterback rating in the month of October was 85.01 and he averaged 134 passing yards a game, while throwing a...
Mettenberger's climb raising optimism at LSU
It hardly mattered that LSU's normally overpowering running game amassed only half of its usual average against Mississippi State.
Suddenly sizzling LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger more than made up for it with a second straight performance approaching the 300-yard plateau in a 37-17 victory over the sinking Bulldogs on Saturday night.
The way Mettenberger has been throwing...

No. 22 Bulldogs set for Mettenberger, No. 9 LSU
Stopping No. 9 LSU becomes much more complicated now that the Tigers have shown they can throw the football.
Mississippi State (7-2, 3-2 Southeastern Conference) hopes to have it figured out when the Bulldogs play at LSU (7-2, 3-2) on Saturday.
LSU lost a 21-17 heartbreaker against No. 1 Alabama last weekend, but the Tigers revealed a much more balanced offense in the process....

Zach Mettenberger taunts Alabama fans with phone gesture after TD
LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger taunted Alabama fans with a phone gesture after throwing a touchdown pass to give the Tigers a fourth-quarter lead over the Crimson Tide on Saturday.
Bama fans got a hold of Mettenberger’s phone number and were prank calling him during the week, so this was his payback after throwing a pretty 14-yard touchdown pass to Jarvis Landry.

LSU's QB issue looms large before Alabama
Zach Mettenberger was never supposed to be the question.
Mettenberger, who began his career at Georgia, consistently offered an answer, a solution to other teams' problems. He provided an answer for Butler (Kan.) Community College, leading the Grizzlies to the JUCO national title game. During his re-recruitment, FBS programs across the country needed an experienced signal caller...

LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger’s ridiculous shoes
LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger was supposed to be the savior for the LSU offense, so far this season that hasn’t happened at all.
Mettenberger looks confused in the pocket and hasn’t made great decisions or throws. Yes, it would be easy to blame the LSU offensive line, who are playing about their 16th player this season, or the wide receivers who have dropped about every good...
LSU slips to No. 4 after sloppy win over Towson
Zach Mettenberger's confidence in LSU's offense remains unshaken, even as the first-year starting quarterback struggles to explain why the Tigers have muddled through their last two victories against heavy underdogs.
On Sunday, LSU (5-0, 1-0 Southeastern Conference) dropped a spot in the AP poll for the second straight week. Once as high as No. 2, LSU slipped from third...

Mettenberger's last chance at first impression
He arrived with so much promise. Even though it seems like forever ago, rabid Georgia fans can't forget the day Oconee County star quarterback Zach Mettenberger arrived in Athens: big, strong, and possessing a canon arm that had many expecting another Matthew Stafford-type career.
Things didn't work out that way. A much smaller Aaron Murray moved to the top of Mark Richt...

This is the next LSU starting quarterback
Here is Zach Mettenberger, the future starting quarterback for the LSU Tigers. LSU fans can be happy that he is only POINTING to Blutarsky chugging a bottle of Jack instead of actually doing so himself. Maybe the Tiger’s quarterback woes will end this season, but Mettenberger doesn’t have the greatest track record. Mettenberger was dismissed from the Georgia Bulldogs football...
