re: How good was the LSU OL in 2019

Well, that point went over your head. Burrow avoided at least 2 sacks with his feet. No telling how many sacks he avoided but imagine it was at least 20 in 15 games.

The point didn't go anywhere. Using one game to try and measure an entire season is ignorant.

Burrow absolutely avoided sacks with his feet. He also held the ball a bit too long at times and caused some. That's how it usually works.

From the voters of the award:

"It's incredible how often and how well they pass block in "empty" protection (no TE or RB help). There are plays all season, including the SEC Championship game where they are blocking 6, 7, 8, 10 seconds while Burrow looks to throw downfield. Great awareness in pass pro and often look for work and pick up delayed rushers. Appear willing to happily serve up some "full slabs" by rearranging an unsuspecting D-lineman's rib cage in slide protection. Very physical bunch."
