Golden opportunity awaits Joe Burrow, LSU in showdown at Auburn

We're going to learn a lot about Joe Burrow on Saturday.

Burrow has never played in a game like the one he will play at Auburn.

LSU's junior quarterback is about to receive his SEC baptism in one of the wildest, wooliest places in college football.

Jordan-Hare Stadium is annually ranked among the most hostile venues in college football. Auburn has won 13 consecutive games there, including their last nine by double-digit margins. They beat No. 2 Georgia and top-ranked Alabama there last year by 23 and 12 points, respectively.

The Plains are such inhospitable territory that redshirt senior Garrett Brumfield felt compelled to address teammates at a team meeting on Monday in an attempt to prepare them for the challenge ahead.
