LSU Joe Burrow touched thanks: Ed Orgeron after winning 2019 Heisman Trophy| Heisman Trophy Ceremony
Hanging with the LSU Students in the Student Section
Week 12 is gonna get complicated in CFB, would if Alabama,Ohio State,and Utah losses.
The last week of the college football season is coming up and we have a very dramatized final week. Oregon just made things complicated losing to Arizona State 31-28, Alabama is only favorite by 3.5 vs Auburn, I see Auburn beating Alabama since its a rivalry game and Alabama is definitely out of the playoffs. Things are gonna get really crazy if Michigan upsets Ohio State, and Michigan has been playing really well in the big house, they have found their offense. Also Georgia escaped a loss from Texas AM, when AM went to uptempo offense Georgia secondary could not keep up, and when LSU plays Georgia in Atlanta for the SEC Title Game, Joe Burrow who has thrown over 4,000 yards will pick a part the Georgia secondary that game is already over. SEC Network Laura Rutledge thinks Georgia is in the drivers seat, hey Laura what do you think of Georgia offense now…..
LSU’S CHASE NAMED SEC OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
BATON ROUGE – LSU’s record-setting wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase has been selected as the Southeastern Conference Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in the 58-37 win over Ole Miss on Saturday in Oxford, the league office announced on Monday.
Chase, a sophomore from Rummel High School in Metairie, La., became LSU’s single-season leader in touchdown receptions on Saturday with 13, moving past Dwayne Bowe, who had held the previous mark of 12 since 2006.
Chase was part of an LSU offense that racked up 714 total yards against the Rebels, which is the second-highest total in school history and the most ever for the Tigers in a conference game. The 714 yards also ranks as the third-highest total in league history in a game featuring two SEC teams.
Against Ole Miss, Chase hauled in eight passes for 227 yards and three touchdowns. All eight of his catches against the Rebels resulted in a first down and/or a touchdown. He also became the first player in LSU history with two 200-yard receiving games during the regular season. His 227 receiving yards was two shy of his career best and ranks as the fifth-highest single-game total in LSU history.
Earlier this year, Chase had 229 yards receiving and four TDs in the win over Vanderbilt.
Chase scored on passing plays of 34, 51 and 61 yards as he averaged 28.4 yards a catch against Ole Miss. It marked the fifth time in six SEC games that he’s topped the 100-yard mark. Chase currently leads the SEC in receiving TDs (13), yards (1,116) and yards per game (124.0).
The SEC Player of the Week honor is the first of Chase’s career and marks the seventh time this year the Tigers have been awarded offensive player of the week honors by the league. Last week, quarterback Joe Burrow and Clyde Edwards-Helaire shared SEC Offensive Player of the Week honors for their play in the win over Alabama.
LSU returns to action on Saturday, hosting Arkansas at 6 p.m. in Tiger Stadium. A limited number of tickets remain for the contest and they can be purchased at www.LSUtix.net.

LSU’S BURROW AND EDWARDS-HELAIRE SHARE SEC PLAYER OF WEEK HONORS
BATON ROUGE – LSU quarterback Joe Burrow and running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire have been selected as Southeastern Conference Offensive Players of the Week for their performance in the 46-41 win over third-ranked Alabama on Saturday, the league office announced on Monday.
The honor is the fifth of the year for Burrow, and seventh of his career with the Tigers, while Edwards-Helaire was honored for the first time.
It’s also just the third time players from the same team have shared SEC Offensive Player of the Week honors since the league established the weekly player of the week honors in 1985. The last time it happened came in 1991 when Tennessee quarterback Andy Kelly and wide receiver Carl Pickens shared the honor. The only other time it’s happened came in 1986 when LSU’s Tommy Hodson and Wendell Davis shared the award for their performance in the win over Notre Dame.
Burrow, who is now 19-3 as LSU’s starting quarterback, completed 31-of-39 passes for 393 yards and three touchdowns in the win. The victory was LSU’s fourth over a Top 10 opponent this year and it marked the eighth time in two years that Burrow has led the Tigers to a win over a team ranked in the Top 10, which is the most for any quarterback in school history.
Burrow added 64 rushing yards to finish with 457 yards of total offense, the third-highest total in school history. His 31 completions tied a career-best and ranks No. 3 in school history. He also extended his school-record for passing TDs in a season to 33 and became the fourth player in LSU history to pass for 3,000 yards in a season.
Edwards-Helaire rushed for 103 yards and three touchdowns and caught nine passes for 77 yards and a score in the victory. He finished with 199 all-purpose yards and he’s now rushed for 100 or more yards in four of LSU’s five league games.
His 13-yard TD reception with six seconds left in the first half gave the Tigers a 33-13 lead at halftime. Edwards-Helaire added TD runs of 1 and 5 yards in the fourth quarter with the later pushing the LSU lead to 46-34 with 1:37 left to play.
Edwards-Helaire averaged 5.2 yards per carry as he became the first player to score four TDs in a game against Alabama since 2007. He accounted for a combined 14 first downs/TDs in the contest and he touched the ball nine times (out of 23 LSU offensive plays) in the fourth quarter.
LSU’s 46 points were the most by the Tigers in the 84-game series with Alabama and it’s also most scored against the Crimson Tide in regulation in Bryant-Denny Stadium history.
Mike Dettilier predicts LSU WIN ! “I think LSU wins the game. They match up better up front.”
I remember in the 80’s when EF Hutton talks everyone listens, when Mike Detillier says something its pretty much well taken of whats gonna happen in the football field. Last year before all the hype of LSU beating Alabama, Detillier said LSU had no chance whatsoever, and LSU lost to Alabama 29-0, not even scoring any points. LSU has scored 10 points versus ALabama in the last 3 years, that will change come saturday. The odds makers are predicting a 34-31 game, I favor LSU will win it with a last second field goal like they did against Auburn last year in Jordan Hare. Last time LSU beat Auburn at Jordan Hare was 2012 before last year. As we know LSU hasn’t beaten Alabama since 2011 in the first meeting in the Game of the Century where LSU pulled out a victory in Overtime 9-6.
Tomorrow will be a fantastic offensive show, if Tua has to sit out a few series because he is not 100% and Alabama puts in Mac Jones, they could fall behind to LSU by 14 points. LSU key of winning the game is to take the lead and keep it, and let Alabama play catch up. According to Mike Detillier, LSU front Oline will push around Alabama’s young DLine and that will be success to LSU;’s victory, and don’t give LSU qb Joe Burrow time to throw in the pocket because its gonna be a long day for the Tide.

A good conversation to Game 6, Astros vs Yankees
I want to give a shout out to my new friends from Houston Texas, Shay and friends, what a fun conversation driving them to Game 6 Astros vs Yankees. The conversation was about fantasy football, college and NFL. Have fun at the game my friends, like I said before Baltimore will do well in Seattle and Detroit should have a big day at home, of course we know Buffalo is gonna pound the Dolphins, so if you are playing fan duel or draft kings Buffalo’s defense will give you plenty of points, with a bad Dolphins offense on the road. I can always be reach for more advice and pics, dailycollegefootball@gmail.com or dailycollegebal at Twitter.
LSU’S BURROW NAMED NATIONAL QB OF THE WEEK A SECOND TIME
L
BATON ROUGE – LSU’s Joe Burrow has been named the Davey O’Brien Foundation’s National Quarterback of the Week for the second time this year as the senior was honored on Tuesday for his play in the 42-28 win over seventh-ranked Florida.
Burrow, who was named the SEC Offensive Player of the Week a fourth time on Monday, completed 21-of-24 passes for 293 yards and three touchdowns in leading the Tigers to the win before a sold-out crowd in Tiger Stadium.
Burrow is 16-3 as LSU’s starting quarterback and he’s guided the Tigers to six wins over Top 10 teams during his two years at the school, the most of any player in program history.
Against the Gators, Burrow completed 12 consecutive passes during one stretch, which ranks as the third-longest streak in school history. He also had his fifth game with at least three touchdown passes in 2019 and extended his school-record streak of consecutive games with at least 20 completions to nine.
Burrow is currently on pace to break every single-season passing record in LSU history as his completions (148), attempts (186), passing yards (2,157) and touchdowns (25) are the most of any player in school history through six games.
Nationally, Burrow leads the FBS in passing efficiency (218.1) and completion percentage (79.6), and ranks No. 2 in passing yards (2,157), passing touchdowns (25) and points responsible for (164).
As a team, Burrow and the LSU offense rank No. 1 in the nation in scoring offense (52.5) and redzone offense (34-of-34), and rank No. 2 in total offense (561.0), passing offense (395.5), and third-down conversion percentage (55.1).
The 6-0 and second-ranked Tigers return to action on Saturday, traveling to face Mississippi State in a 2:30 p.m. contest on CBS.
LSU grills up some Gators for homecoming
A good game indeed, but overall LSU had too much offense for the Gator defense that did a lot of talking before the game. I wonder how is that DBU from Florida doing about right now after giving up 42 points thru the air and 2 big touchdown runs. Funny how Dan Mullen kept repeating himself, our next game is the biggest game of the year, he said that like 5 times. Dan doesn’t realized he just got whipped by the Tigers for homecoming.
LSU gets ready for Mississippi State and Auburn in 2 weeks before their bye week and game 2 of the century with Alabama. Since 2011, I never seen a more explosive team like this LSU Team, they have great passing and rushing as well. There you have it Tiger Fans…..
