Burrow traded the Big Ten for the SEC, transferring to LSU. Thanks to modernized rules, he did not have to sit out and started in 2017, throwing for 2,894 yards and 16 TDs. What happened next in 2018 was stunning. Burrow led the Tigers to the national championship and himself to the Heisman by throwing for an astounding 5,671 yards and 60 touchdowns.
