You sure about that? Jayden actually leads in every category except PPG and total yards on the season. But he's averaging more yards per game. He won't top Joe in total yards simply because he'll have fewer games played.

Jayden is having an historic season.

Joe Burrow played a murderer’s row schedule and LSU was still often playing with their foot off the gas pedal in most 2nd halves due to being up by so many points.

Jayden might average more yards per game, but Joe could have very easily averaged another 100 yards per game, thrown another TD or 2 per game, etc. 2 games that come to mind are the Semi final against Oklahoma and Sr Night against A&M. Both games were over immediately and that directly impacted Burrow from not accumulating more stats. And those weren’t the only games that happened during that season.

More total yards yes but not passing yards per game. What Joe did from a passing standpoint was just ridiculous. He had 65 Total Touchdowns in 15 games for average of 4.33 Touchdowns per game. Jayden Daniels has 38 Total touchdowns in 10 games for an average of 3.8 Touchdowns per game. Jayden averaging 316.4 yds per game throwing. Joe averaged 378.1 yds per game.

Jayden is having a fantastic and historic season but Joe's 2019 season is the single best season in College Football history. I hope Jayden wins the Heisman because he deserves it but as good as this season is its not on par with Joe's 2019 season.

You guys are forgetting Joe came out in the 4th quarter for a lot of his games.

Against? Again, look at the defensive rankings of the opponents.
Burrow beat 3 of the top 7 defenses in UGA, Clemson, and UF (look up their pass defensive rankings before and after Burrow got them. The other 2 in Bama and Auburn were Top 17. Then there were other teams that were really good.

In 2023 LSU has played 2 teams in the Top 20 with Bama at 15 and FSU at 17.

Others were
Auburn at 31
Army at 44

TAMU is at 30 (to be played)

agree

We can agree that the LSU defense improved over the last month. This has been well documented. So how good were they really? They ended up at 31 for the season. They were not that great in the grand scheme of things as we know LSU defenses. Some of it had to do with how good the offense was to some extent. BUT they were not barn burners for damn sure.
