I was not familiar with the exact numbers, but i know that for years LSU was mainly a run first offense. They did start throwing more in 2018 when Ensminger arrived, but they were not that good. They only had 17 passing tds in 2018. And according to the stats you posted their total offense numbers actually dropped in yards per game from 2017 to 2018.
But when Brady showed up in 2019 their QB had one of the greatest seasons in college football history. And I have a strong feeling they are going to drop back down to about the 2018 level next year.
Fred, you try and paint the picture that Burrow is some kind of freak, some kind of giant anomaly, some kind of something so far from the ordinary that there has to be reasons other than him just being good.
When the fact is you'd run a brand new pen out of ink before you could write down all the QB's who took a big jump in ability, poise, stats, in their last season before being drafted.
