Hope Nuss is watching Burrow running when needed in game tonight against

Burrow is a DT QB Nuss is not and that's okay.

Burrow was listed as a DT QB as a recruit and is bigger, stronger, and more athletic than Nuss.

I thought I heard a rumor in preseason that Nuss cleared 20 mph or something to do with him having pretty good speed.

I don't think Burrow is faster than Nuss, just more willing and skilled as a runner.

There were at least 4. It would have changed the game dramatically.

Maybe Burrow called Nuss and said, "Watch what I do tonight when the lane opens up."

I wholeheartedly agree. I do not think Nuss will be a high draft pick unless he shows that he can run somewhat. He hast to do just a little, but if he doesn’t do any, draft will severely fall. And worse than that, the tigers could lose some games because of that. He’s got the strap it on and be tough.

It’s definitely not about being dual threat. It’s about extending drives and Giving what the defense gives you, even if it means involve you running the football and putting yourself slightly at risk

In fact, I don’t see how LSU can ever effectively run the football out of the shotgun formation when the quarterback has never shown the defense that he is any threat to run the football on a zone read or On a read pass option when everything else breaks down. That’s why I think our running game sucks.

Nuss was afforded multiple opportunities to run for significant yards against the Rebels for a reason: The Rebs knew he wouldn’t do it.

You don’t need to be a DTQB to pick up 6-7 yards when there’s not a defender in sight
