David Crum from Kent State, Kyle Trask from Florida, and Garrett Shrader from Mississippi State all put up better QB numbers vs Auburn than Burrow did. More yards per attempt, more touchdowns (Crum tied Burrow with just 1 TD), and less interceptions.

Then you have to adjust Burrow's numbers to take into account that LSU's offensive line brazenly held on probably 30 out of Burrow's 42+ dropbacks.

Mississippi State and Florida also scored as many (or more) points against Auburn as LSU did.

More intriguing is the tidbit I picked up from an AU source who attended the game. It rained less than a quarter of an inch in Baton Rouge on Saturday morning (before 6am), and there was only around an inch of rain on Thursday and Friday. Yet the field looked like it had received 5+ inches of rain and was in piss poor shape.

There's a strong suspicion that LSU wet the field repeatedly with fire hoses so they could slow down Auburn's pass rush. Dunno if that's true, but Auburn had been told the field had good drainage and had to scramble to adjust footwear after warm-ups.

Wow, this is next level dumb...

So LSU would slow down the Auburn pass rush, and this would simultaneously not affect the LSU passing game?

500 yards against that Auburn defense is outstanding. You need not minimize Burrow’s performance imho. I’d be happy if Bama had 500 yards against that defense.

Burrow would have had more opportunities if the refs would have called holding on Auburn’s offensive line like they should have.

Lawrence was being tackled every. single. play. Made me sick.

Why would we wet the field? Why would we make it harder for us to get to Nix? It is obvious he plays terrible when you can get to him. This is just stupid.

The heisman is not won in one game...

Seems just as plausible as a non-working AC being responsible for LSU's struggles vs a mediocre Texas team.

What's funny is how some LSU fans are so conspiracy prone and whiny that they can't even identify obvious parody of their own BS.

Don’t think anyone said THAT was the reason. Pretty sure it was more about the injured defensive starters that missed the entire game or most of it, but carry on with your narrative that helps you sleep at night.

Bottom line, LSU got the W and Auburn got yet another L.

I would take Burrow to my QB any day. He is a baller.

You might be the dumbest yet. And that's saying a lot. A tropical damn storm came through you idiot.

Let us all know when you figure out if you’re supposed to be a boy or a girl. We’ll be here for you.

Also, if we were Florida, we would have just canceled the game.
