2nd to last drive against Bama

I watched it again last night. Truly a thing of beauty:

--Joe Burrow took the play clock down to almost 0 on almost every snap. I know that sounds simple, but given LSU's history on stuff like this, it almost made me tear up

--The 1st Down play was the fake QB draw where Joe Burrow pulled up at the LoS and hit Chase over the middle for ultimately a 35 yard gain. It might be the single best play call from the sidelines ever. I was there in person - and you can still feel it on TV - it REALLY deflated the home crowd, as it put LSU almost in FG range immediately

--The famous 3rd down "Heisman moment". On this one, Joe Burrow must have seen something he liked, because he snapped the ball with over 20 seconds left on the play clock. Fake handoff right, and then cut around the left side for a MASSIVE gain up the middle. It could not have been more situationally aware or better executed.

--Clyde TD run - somehow makes it in the endzone and then casually, perfectly flips the ball no-look to the ref and gives some skin to a random LSU guy right there on the sideline.


I know, I know, the 85 yard bomb on the 1st play of the following Bama drive. But still - to answer back with this drive after the Bama TD was arguably the defining moment of the season (and right on the heals of the preceding LSU drive that was itself the defining moment of the season just 10 minutes before )
