LSU HC Ed Orgeron Says Joe Burrow Should Win Heisman Trophy After SEC Title Game

LSU coach Ed Orgeron believes Joe Burrow is the clear top option to win the Heisman Trophy.

"In my opinion, he should win it," Orgeron said after Saturday's win over Georgia, per Alex Scarborough of ESPN. "In my opinion, he's going to win it. The best thing about Joe is he's a team player. All he wants to do is win this game. Individual awards are not high on his list. That's what makes him such a great team player."

Burrow totaled 349 passing yards and four touchdowns, plus 41 rushing yards, in the SEC Championship Game victory.
