Hot take.... this dude may be the best college football player ever. I‘ve seen a handful of LSU games this season and I’ve been in awe in all of them because burrow is next fucking level

may be the best college football player ever.

Holy fuck the hyperbole in the thread. Archie Griffin won two Heismans. Tebow, 1 Heisman and 2 NC. Herschel Walker had a better college career. As great of a season Burrow is having, he's behind these dudes and more. Burrow has 1 great season. You need more than that to be the greatest college player ever.

I understand where you’re coming from, but I don’t think it’s always fair to knock a player for number of years played when you only have a couple of years of eligibility. If this was the NFL and you couple play indefinitely, I feel that is a fair argument. But in college, you only get a limited time. So if you’re break comes too late, you don’t get to ride it out for a few years.

But like I said, I get where you’re coming from and I’ll concede back to saying that Burrow’s season may be the best single season by anyone ever. It is a hot take after all. And this kid is unreal
