How LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier's 2024 stats compared to Joe Burrow's 2018 season

LSU football quarterback Garrett Nussmeier was solid in 2024. In his first year as a starter, Nussmeier led LSU to ranked wins over Ole Miss and South Carolina. When he was at his best, he dazzled with NFL-level throws.

But like there are for any year one starter, there were struggles. Nussmeier was inconsistent in late October and early November as LSU hit a three-game skid. The Tigers offense struggled coming out of the half at Texas A&M, and those struggles continued into the Alabama and Florida contests.

Nussmeier elected to return for his fifth year of college football and will be back in 2025.
