re: Three P5 QB's had at least 2,800 yards passing, 15 touchdown and 5 or fewer interceptions

Yeah, against Arkansas, Rice, A&M, and UCF. Only two of those are P5, and only one had a defense worth a shite. But yeah, I'm happy LSU finally figured out how to pass the ball against shitty teams in 2018. Watching the offense against Tech and Southeastern made me want to rip out my eyes.

And FWIW I think Burrow had a good given the circumstances. The problem was Ensminger and his complete inability to make changes through out the game.

Burrow in any competent offense would be a much better player, I firmly believe that.

I'm not bitching about a 395 yd performance. I laughing at the fact people are touting it as some amazing feat when other football powerhouses do it on a regular basis against teams like those. I mean for frick sakes, Temple was able to put up better offensive numbers against UCF that LSU, and they were a terrible team.

With expectations like these Ree will have the rant looking forward to a 8-4 season by the time August rolls around.


What a job.

I was told by one of these people that it's impossible to be excited about 2019 because we are going to Lose to Alabama anyway, so its a waste.

I was told by this same person it's up to the head coach to get him/her excited.

I was also told that if you hold out any hope that LSU can beat Alabama, then you believe in ghosts and fairies.

And this person claims to be a "fan"

Obsessed.

Not to mention a bunch of patented Shrubs's strawmen.

We should start calling them Shrubsmen arguments.

Those numbers are so bad

(If you take out all of the drops, he would've had over 3000 yards and a 67% completion percentage)

I don't disagree Burrow did well and poised to be an LSU great, but please leave this dumb shite out of all QB arguments unless you remove drops from every QB.

Pretty sure there was a SDS or PFF study showing LSU was better than mid-pack in SEC drops also.

Just proof that cherry picking a four game span goes both ways. Except you picked games against good teams to show what it's like during crunch time and Roger picked games against scrubs to try and fluff stats. Oh FWIW that's 1/3 of the season(square in the meat of LSU's schedule) without a passing TD.

Sports reference gives passing stats for players with at least 14 attempts per game. 107 players met that criteria. Here is where Burrow ranked in major categories:

Completion %: 77th

Y/A: 50th

TD: 65th

INT: 13th

Rate: 64th

Rushing: 25th

Rushing YPA: 33rd
