Burrow in my opinion is the clear front-runner for the Heisman right now! I'm very sold on him.

Your post makes to much sense. Don't you realize that it's easier to just throw something against the wall and hope it sticks ? I also agree about him being at the front for the Heisman.Chieftain2009 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 6:39 pmLSU is good, I'm still not sold on the defense.

Here's the thing about your constant comments about Burrow being "the best QB ever at Ohio State." The coaches obviously saw them play more than we did. It's not like Burrow was a world beater last year in his first year at LSU. He was good, but not great. The new offensive coordinator at LSU came in and completely changed everything, which is something that has really helped Burrow shine.
His time at OSU didn't work out for either side, and that's completely okay!! It doesn't always work. I'm glad a kid from SE Ohio is successful!
That's silly. When you look at recruiting totals on the rosters or NFL projections on the rosters, OSU can match up with anyone. Then, toss in that OSU is the only team that has consistently played well on both sides of the ball.
Agree. People keep forgetting that Burrow was injured in 2017 and the 2018 OSU QB race was 2018 Haskins against 2018 Burrow only. Now, with that in mind, go check how both performed in 2018.Chieftain2009 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 6:39 pmLSU is good, I'm still not sold on the defense.

Neither LSU or Bama have played good defense against any decent offensive team all year. LSU just gave up 400+ yards rushing to Ole Miss. If OSU did that, they'd drop in the polls and the country would be talking about what garbage they are.
Clemson is the true concern, as they have been playing well on both sides lately.
Yeah, but not sure why anyone would think OSU wouldn't stand up to the challenge. After all, they were up 10-0 against UW in the 3rd, then had a punt blocked that UW eventually cashed in for 7. 10-7 game with all momentum in favor of UW. OSU responded to that by rattling off 4 straight TDs.Omega wrote: ↑Mon Nov 18, 2019 4:20 pmMy qualifying statement was "that night".BoJack Horseman wrote: ↑Mon Nov 18, 2019 3:39 pmThat's silly.

Ohio State's talent level is unquestioned. The Buckeye coaching staff has found the right buttons to push as evidenced by their statistical dominance. Yet what remains to be seen is how the Bucks and Fields will react in a street fight atmosphere that was Bama-LSU.
As to Clemson they are peaking at the right time. The Tiger defense held a credible Wake Forest offense to 105 total yards. I know it is fashionable to trash Clemson and Dabo, but the path to the national championship likely runs through Death Valley east instead of Baton Rouge.
Very good? Absolutely. Saying he is on a different level compared to the rest of college football? Hardly not.Raider6309 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 18, 2019 5:32 pm Burrow is just on another level compared to the rest of college football. LSU is getting back back the best linebacker in the country this week. The defense should be at 100% come Georgia and for the playoffs
Vegas is setting that line to make money - meaning Burrow is highly likely to win the Heisman. It's not a judgment of player caliber. If any player from any team was the public's favorite to win the Heisman, the Vegas odds would match public sentiment.
I hope he wins the trophy, Raider. I'm with ya every inch of the way. He's very good ole bud, and has proven it to me, IMO & FWIW.Raider6309 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 7:01 pm Burrow is having arguably the greatest QB season in college football history.

Check this out, Raider. Very cool plush stuff right here ole bud. State of the art. Sure do take care of their players down there at LSU.Raider6309 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 19, 2019 7:01 pm Burrow is having arguably the greatest QB season in college football history.
Doesnt really say that one player (Burrow) has CLEARLY ran away from the pack.......
Fields has played little sisters of the poor. OSU is dominate because of the line and the run gameBleeding Red wrote: ↑Wed Nov 20, 2019 12:57 pmDoesnt really say that one player (Burrow) has CLEARLY ran away from the pack.......
Sounds kind of like Burrow's high school schedule where he couldn't win a championship there either.Raider6309 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 20, 2019 4:32 pmFields has played little sisters of the poor.
