Yes, LSU has lost 3 times this season and yes, the Tigers defense is keeping them from truly competing for a title this season, but Daniels has performed like the top player in the country, especially recently. There’s a reason he’s taken over as the odds frontrunner for Heisman according to some sportsbooks.
Daniels finished Saturday’s game with 413 yards and 6 passing touchdowns, adding 96 rushing yards with 2 touchdowns.
Burden didn’t score 8 touchdowns on Saturday, but he did total 9 enormous receptions at critical moments to help the Tigers down Florida. He finished with 9 receptions for 148 total yards.
