No. 1 LSU Wins 12th SEC Title in Rout of Bulldogs, 37-10

ATLANTA -- Led by Joe Burrow's four touchdown passes, No. 1-ranked LSU won its 12th SEC Championship, 37-10, over No. 4 Georgia on Saturday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

In head coach Ed Orgeron's third full season in Baton Rouge, improved to 13-0 and solidified its place in the College Football Playoff Semifinals to be held Dec. 28.

Burrow, the odds-on favorite to win the Heisman Trophy next Saturday in New York, was named the game's Most Valuable Player after completing 28-of-38 passes for 349 yards and four touchdowns. His footwork and escapability allowed him to lead LSU in rushing for most of the contest (41 yards), and he also caught a deflect pass that he threw for a 16-yard gain.
