All 7 of Joe Burrow’s record-setting TD passes in first half against Oklahoma
By Adam Spencer
Published:
The LSU Tigers are absolutely dominating the Oklahoma Sooners in the first half of the Peach Bowl on Saturday afternoon.
Heisman-winning QB Joe Burrow has already thrown 7 touchdowns (a Peach Bowl record, the most in a game in LSU history and tied for the most TD passes in a game in SEC history) and Justin Jefferson has caught 4 of them (tied for a bowl game record).
With a 49-14 lead entering the intermission, the Tigers are rolling and will get the ball to start the second half, as well.
So, as we pause for halftime, let’s take a look at all 7 of Burrow’s TD passes.
Here’s TD No. 1, which was a great effort by Jefferson:

Here’s touchdown No. 2, which was a nice find by a scrambling Burrow:

Here’s TD No. 4, which was Jefferson’s third scoring grab. It was perhaps the best of the bunch:

For TD No. 6, Burrow spread the love, hitting Thaddeus Moss for an easy score:
LMAO! LSU responds quickly. Oklahoma leaves Thaddeus Moss, son of Randy Moss, wide open and he gets in for the 62 yard TD! pic.twitter.com/tEm8bQu1oa

And, finally, No. 7. This one was Terrace Marshall Jr.’s second of the game:

Oh, and he also has 403 passing yards and 0 interceptions.
There’s still a full half of football to be played, so we’ll see how many more touchdowns are scored in this shootout of a Peach Bowl.
