LSU defeated Clemson 42-25 in the College Football Playoff national championship on Monday evening.
Joe Burrow, LSU’s Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback, was the star of the game. He totaled 521 yards from scrimmage and scored six touchdowns, making him an easy choice for the game’s MVP award.
Broncos cornerback Chris Harris, who is a pending free agent, watched the game and came away impressed with Burrow.
Harris noted that Burrow was too good for Clemson’s defense to handle.
Surely the QB will be selected No. 1 overall in the 2020 NFL draft, right? The Bengals own the first pick in April’s draft and it would be a shock if they selected anyone besides Burrow. He’s been a popular No. 1 pick in mock drafts for several months now.
Burrow might not be the greatest college quarterback of all time but, statistically, he just had the greatest single season by a QB.
This year’s draft will be held in Las Vegas from April 23-25.
