LSU has actually named Myles Brennan the teams starting quarterback when the Tigers open the season on Saturday at home versus Mississippi State.
Brennan steps in for Joe Burrow, who tossed 60 goal passes in 2019 and had maybe the very best season in college football history. Burrow, a former transfer, won the Heisman Trophy and led the Tigers to the nationwide championship before being picked No. 1 overall in the NFL draft by the Cincinnati Bengals.
A junior from Mississippi, Brennan has actually appeared in 17 games in his career, including 10 last season.

” Ive constantly thought in Myles Brennan,” Orgeron stated.
He later added: “The only thing we do not understand– and we do believe hell do extremely well– is how hell do under fire.”
LSU heads into the season opener down 19 starters from in 2015s group, including star wideout JaMarr Chase.
