The guy has thrown 6 TD's all season (3 against Ole Miss, 2 against SE LA). He threw 3 picks and 0 TD's in the entire month of October. Why are people hyping this guy up?

If the kicker blows the game winner against Auburn, wouldn't every LSU fan be calling for him to get benched?

You haven't watched any LSU games have you?

Not sure, but I know why you're missing your cousin.

We are LSU. We lost to Florida.
You are Alabama, the best team in cfb HISTORY.
Of course our QB sucks.

Bama will be exposed Saturday night in Tiger Stadium. Arkansas scored 31 points on Bama. Arkansas. Think about that. Bama beat only one ranked team this year. When you have a weak schedule then the stats are always distorted.

Even the “eye test” can deceive you because you are playing weak teams so it looks good visually.

Most of the players with Bama now have never played LSU at night in Tiger Stadium. LSU has defeated 3 teams in the top 10 this year, including #2 Georgia. LSU dominated Georgia. Bama will be exposed.

I don't understand why so many fans of other teams don't understand why we LSU fans are happy to have him. The guy is good at football.

For 1, we love his attitude. He has everything you want in terms of leadership ability, toughness, decision making, Etc. Secondly, Burrow is athletic. Don't be surprised if Burrow uses his legs several times on Saturday to get crucial first downs. Third, obviously his passing stats are not great, especially when compared to Tue and the other high powered offenses in this league, but he is doing what is asked of him.

His completion percentage isn't good, but has been affected by drops/throw aways. Burrow does not force throws, and rarely turns the ball over. If it's not there, he is getting rid of it. He can read defenses and make the correct changes at the line pre-snap. I'm happy to have him. I think his teammates and coaches are happy to have him. That is enough for me.

Nothing honestly, the guy is ballyhooed by LSU unexpected record. If LSU was 5-3 or 4-4 it would calls for Brennan, his limitations will be exposed on Saturday especially if Bama gets ahead early.

Because he's the best QB we've had since Mettenberger. Anyone who follows CFB could tell you that the biggest deficiency talent wise at LSU has always been our QB. We can match pretty much any other team's talent at any other position.

Is Joe Burrow a world beater? Well no, he isn't. Has he been effective in leading the LSU offense and winning ball games? He absolutely has.

People tend to forget this is his first season as a starter. 7-1 with the schedule we've faced is pretty remarkable

He won't wow you with stats, but the guy is, as they say, a "gamer".

He's very competitive.

Has a confidence we haven't seen at QB in a while.

Never seems rattled or that the moment is too big for him.

And he plays well when it matters, although his main hiccup is the Florida game.

This will no doubt be his biggest test and will tell us what he's really made of.

No shame in missing on Burrow. He's quite elusive. Deceptively so, even.
