Joe Burrow has, admittedly, had better games in his football career.
The junior quarterback struggled early against Mississippi State and finished just 16-of-28 for 129 yards and an interception. He said he “threw the ball like a middle schooler” and shouldered the blame for the Tigers’ offensive struggles after gaining just 239 yards as a time.
Then, he thanked his defense – and was thankful he didn’t have to play against them.
“Our defense is incredible,” Burrow said, after watching Dave Aranda’s unit hold Mississippi State to 260 yards while forcing four interception in LSU’s 19-3 win over the Bulldogs.
