0 to 100: Joe Burrow
By Robert Rangel Credit:https://lsusports.net/news/2019/12/3/football-hfp-sec-championship-preview-with-hester.aspx Joe Burrow. The quarterback who went from a backup to having one of the greatest statistical seasons ever in college football history. He went from just another player to most likely the number one pick in this year's NFL Draft. It was the summer of 2017 and the college football season was getting ready to start. Joe Burrow was a redshirt sophomore for the Ohio St. Buckeyes. He was the backup to J.T. Barrett. However, in a Monday practice, Burrow broke his throwing hand. This injury sidelined him indefinitely for the season. He was replaced by Freshman Dwayne Haskins as the backup. This means Burrow was now the third string quarterback and was guaranteed no playing time. Burrow did not see the field in 2017. He competed in a quarterback competition in the spring of 2018 against Haskins for the starting position for the 2018 season. Urban Meyer and
