It's even funnier from an NFL perspective.

The New Orleans Saints are full of former Ohio State players...the Cleveland Browns are full of former LSU players

They are already working on their half/half OSU/LSU Burrow jersey. Would be cool if someone made one and spelled it Burreaux and the "eaux" fell on the LSU side.

They won't. Their allegiance is to their team first and foremost. Burrow is an Ohio kid who left OSU with no malice. No OSU fan was "mad" at him for leaving and I'm sure they hoped he would do well. Of course, no one thought he would do THIS well. Still, they'd pull for OSU over Burrow. No different than pulling for you favorite NFL team over a team that has several alums of your favorite college.

It will be his hometown that would be the most torn. I think they are thrilled beyond belief that he is having so much success. In their perfect world Joe would win the Heisman, SEC, make it to the championship game, become the #1 draft pick and LOSE to OSU for the championship.

I'd want Joe to have a great game in a losinh effort and if he wins a match up against us I'd be happy for him.

Do not be surprise if the rankings are manipulated for us to play OSU in the 1st playoff game. The NCAA would benefit greatly by this story!

Not so much if they have to play us.

I did talk to a customer from OH. He said lots of people up there are pulling for Joe Burrow. Would be a great matchup!

People in Athens/The Plains like LSU because of Joe. Thats Ohio University territory. Theyll probably root for Joe tbh.

That'd be like Ruston rooting for a kid that went to Clemson and was going to win the hesiman.

My ideal scenario, as an OSU fan, is that Joe has a great game and OSU wins 51 to 48.

Being objective, I would say that this is probably true. From NFL performance, I would rather have Mike Thomas, Marshon Lattimore, Vonn Bell, Tedd Ginn, and Eli Apple over OBJ, Jarvis, and Greedy.

I will root for both LSU and OSU to make it to the championship game.

I want to see a shootout with Joey B and Fields both having great games, and I hope to see OSU win on a great special teams play or a fumble recovery.

If Burrow and the Tigers manage to win, I can at least tip my hat for a game well played to a team I like and respect, and hopefully won't be as bummed as I would be if the Buckeyes lost to another team.
