Trevor Lawrence is damn good, but to say he’s played better than Joe Burrow this year is absolutely absurd. Lawrence has some awful games this year.

Against Georgia Tech: 13/23 168 yards 1td/2int

Against North Carolina: 18/30 206 yards 1td/0 int

He was also unimpressive against A&M and Louisville. They play substantially inferior opponents and the almost lost one to that inferior opponent (North Carolina).

Again, Lawrence is a really, really good quarterback, but to say what he has done is more impressive than Burrow is simply absurd.

He even said something about Lawrence only playing in 3 4th quarters as if that doesn't completely prove the whole level of competition thing.

Numbers mean nothing to me because there are too many variables. For example, T Law has Travis Etienne who is averaging 9 yards a carry.

What matters to me most is winning in pressure moments. You cant deny Burrow has been his best in the biggest moments this year. On the flip side, T Law won a national championship as a freshman.

They are both likely going number in the NFL draft(thi year and next). I dont think its an insult to either on who is the best right now.


one is winning the Heisman and one isnt. i mean that kinda shows who is playing better.

And Lawrence has two playoff wins.... Is he having a better year???? No way.



exactly, not even close statistically this year, i assume that's not what he's arguing. and if he is, its clearly not close why does anyone care?

Just when I thought you couldn’t hate on LSU anymore then you have the last few years

This is a new low for you


And i really thought you could read. i said i wasn't agreeing with him. The stats clearly Burrow has had a much better year. How is that "hating" on LSU?

I am assuming the argument was in the context of like who would you take, who do you think is subjectively better and i do not find it outrageous or an insult for someone to pick Lawrence who has won a NC and never lost a college game. FTR I would take Burrow.

I'm sure I'm not first, but this is one of the best highlights of all time.
