**Joe Burrow: The Modern LSU GOAT**
Joe Burrow’s name has become synonymous with greatness in Baton Rouge, and now, his legendary legacy has earned a new spotlight. Time Square Magazine has recognized Burrow as the Greatest LSU Tiger of All Time — a modern GOAT whose 2019 season remains one of the most iconic in college football history.
Burrow’s impact on LSU football is unmatched. Arriving as a transfer from Ohio State, he quickly grew into the leader LSU needed, and in 2019, everything aligned for a once-in-a-generation campaign.
With an incredible blend of precision, poise, and competitiveness, Burrow led the Tigers to a perfect 15-0 season, capped off with a dominant national championship win. Along the way, he dismantled some of college football’s most powerful programs — Alabama, Georgia, Oklahoma, and Clemson — leaving no doubt about LSU’s place at the top.
Statistically, Burrow’s 2019 season was historic. He threw for an astonishing 60 touchdown passes, setting a new FBS single-season record.
Week after week, he made the extraordinary look routine, carving up elite defenses with pinpoint accuracy and unmatched football IQ. Whether it was threading the needle between defenders or extending plays with his legs, Burrow always seemed in complete control.
His Heisman Trophy win was a foregone conclusion, and he accepted the honor with humility and grace, thanking his teammates, coaches, and the people of Louisiana in a speech that touched hearts nationwide.
But beyond the stats and accolades, it was Burrow’s demeanor that set him apart. Calm under pressure, fiercely competitive, and unshakably confident, he became a cultural icon in Louisiana.
His now-famous “Burreaux” jersey, worn during Senior Night to honor the Cajun roots of the LSU fanbase, symbolized the deep connection he had formed with the community. He wasn’t just a quarterback — he became a symbol of pride for the entire state.
Tiger fans continue to revere Joe Burrow not just for the wins, but for the way he carried himself — with class, toughness, and unrelenting belief.
His leadership transformed LSU into a juggernaut, and his influence remains a guiding force for the program today. In the eyes of many, no one has worn the purple and gold quite like him.
Being named the Greatest LSU Tiger of All Time by Time Square Magazine only cements what LSU faithful already knew: Joe Burrow isn’t just a former player — he’s a legend.
His story will be told for generations, not only for what he did on the field, but for how he made LSU fans believe in greatness again.
