LSU quarterback Joe Burrow didn’t stand a chance against Jachai Polite.

Florida’s defensive lineman blew by right tackle Adrian Magee without any fancy moves. No spins, no rips, just pure speed before Polite stalked Burrow from behind like a lion creeping up on a gazelle.

All it took was three seconds for Polite to catch his prey.

Polite dove for Burrow, slapping the unprotected ball from Burrow’s throwing arm and forcing the LSU quarterback to drop the ball.

The strip-sack, which was immediately picked up by defensive tackle Kyree Campbell, was a game changer for the Gators.
