Well, this sucks for the SEC:

LSU starting quarterback JaMarcus Russell did not accompany the Tigers to Atlanta for the Peach Bowl.

Russell, who injured his left shoulder Dec. 3, remained in Baton Rouge for treatment and rehabilitation, meaning Matt Flynn will make his first start in Friday's Peach Bowl.

...

LSU (10-2) plays ninth-ranked Miami (9-2) in the Georgia Dome, where Russell suffered a separated shoulder in a 34-14 loss to Georgia.
My suspicious nature makes me wonder if LSU thinks they are going to lose to Miami, and the new coach wants a good excuse.
