That seems noteworthy but is it comparing apples to apples when Bama pulls their QB with over nine minutes left in the second quarter? There were three minutes left in the game when the Burrow led offense scored the final touchdown against Ole Miss. With over three minutes left in the third quarter Bama has their 3rd string quarterback in the game.
Maybe Tua would have gotten 1,000 yards of offense if he had stayed in, or maybe he would have gotten a knee injury and be out for the rest of the season. We’ll never know. The LSU team out gained the Bama team in offense against Ole Miss. Bama has also played comparitvely inferior defenses than LSU. Spin, spin, spin. “But muh quarterback...”
