Rise of Joe Burrow

Joe Burrow's Remarkable Rise Has Been Beyond Even His Wildest Dreams | Sports Illustrated

Joe Burrow dreamed of suiting up for the college football team he had rooted for all his life, where his father and two older brothers had played. He grew up in The Plains, Ohio, became a star quarterback in high school and led his team to a state championship game appearance. In his dreams he would go on to lift the once-proud program that he revered—Nebraska—back to prominence. Maybe, when his imagination got carried away, even to a national championship.

But Burrow’s dream was not meant to be. The Cornhuskers wouldn’t even give him a look. “They were questioning his arm strength and whatever,” says Joe’s brother Dan, a Huskers safety in the early 2000s. “All Joe ever wanted to do was play for Nebraska. It really, really hurt me.”

Burrow went to Ohio State instead.

Burrow went to Ohio State instead, where he sat on the bench for three seasons. When he decided to transfer as a redshirt junior, Nebraska, mired in a dismal stretch, could have landed him again. The Cornhuskers passed. When asked about Burrow at the time, Nebraska coach Scott Frost said, “You think he’s better than what we got?”


Frost a wild boy :skip: @Go Cornhuskers!

Burrow being salty for what? Pelini's staff was the one that didn't recruit him outta HS, then he wouldn't have fit in Frost's offense because it requires a mobile QB. LSU's OC, receivers, running game & O-line are way better than Nebraska, so he clearly made the right choice. No one even thought that Adrian would hit such a hard sophomore slump this year.

Joe don't run when they need him to over in the gumbo state?

And maybe not, but you still take a flier on talent like that, especially if you this offensive guru. He should have been able to do some Joe Brady esque shyt.

Notice how his rise to stardom was when he left that shyt state and program?


Nah, but I notice the rise of that OSU war cry when yall was was getting your shyt pushed in on ya own turf for the umpteenth time. Cant wait for our home game Saturday

The guys in vegas on VSIN radio say the reason LSU dropped to #2 is because the committee doesnt want LSU to play bama again 1st round of the playoffs.

They are really trying to get bama back into the playoffs.

If im Orgeron i dont play anyone in the SEC title game and let georgia get in and win the sec championship.

They said there is alot of money exchanging hands with the committee and they are bought and paid for
