Barring injury, Burrow will be the starter under center when LSU opens the season Sept. 2 against Miami, Fla. It'll be a Troy-like upset otherwise.
You know it. I know it. And if you injected some sodium pentothal into Orgeron's tanned right arm, he would admit it, too.
He just can't say it. Not as the head football coach. He owes Myles Brennan, Justin McMillan and Lowell Narcisse a fair shot at the position. And he owes it to his football team to select the player that gives them the best chance to succeed.
"I really want the quarterback to win the starting position on that football team, and everybody see it," Orgeron said.
And all signs point to Burrow winning that competition.
"He has all of that on paper," Orgeron said of Burrow. "Now we need to see it."
If Burrow is as good as advertised, he will. And the Tigers quarterback competition will be over early this fall.
In this were a horse race, Burrow would be Justify and the incumbent trio would be the field.
