250/370 65.2% completion 3280 Passing yards 36 TDs 8 INTs
514 yards rushing 8 TDs
371/478 77.6% completion 5208 passing yards 55 TDs 6 INTs
310 yards rushing 4 TDs
So Burrow has passed for 1900 more yards, 19 more TDs, 12% higher completion, and fewer interceptions than Lawrence against tougher competition. There's no scenario where Burrow loses this game unless he gets injured.
Since we did this in the RB post...here are the opponents pass defensive rankings (based on YPG).
LSU:
Ga Southern - 78
Texas - 125
Vandy - 86
Utah St - 91
Florida - 36
Miss St - 92
Auburn - 60
Alabama - 16
Ole Miss - 113
Arkansas - 74
aTm - 49
Georgia - 19
Oklahoma - 46
Average = 68.1
Clemson:
Georgia Tech - 56
aTm - 49
Syracuse - 114
Charlotte - 21
UNC - 72
Florida St - 115
Louisville - 96
Boston Col - 127
NC State 111
Wake For - 109
USCe - 79
Virginia - 83
Ohio St - 2
Average = 79.5

Good thing you left out attempts as well. One guy rarely played in the 4th quarter during blowouts and the other guy did.
I posted the number of attempts. But it's kind of irrelevant when the completion percentage is still a lot higher for Burrow.

Do you not see the flaw in these rankings?

Sure I do...but there are three types of lies:

Statistics that include teams that played a QB completing 77% of his passes?
Surely that doesn’t affect the data
