Video: What LSU Players had to Say About Beating No. 3 Alabama
LSU quarterback Joe Burrow said after the Tigers 46-41 win over No. 3 Alabama Saturday that games like these are the reason he decided to transfer from Ohio State last summer.
Burrow added that he is proud to be a part of a team and a culture that is all about the right things.
"I know that I can play on this stage and I just have great people around me," Burrow said. "Great coaching staff, great teammates and a great program all around. Having these guys embrace me the way that they have, some quarterback from Ohio who came in last June and the way they've embraced me, it means the world to me."
It's these games, these moments that not only drew Burrow to the LSU campus, but countless other Tigers before him, including members of the current team. Guys like Clyde Edwards-Helaire, who grew up in Baton Rouge and knows the importance of this rivalry.
Edwards-Helaire, for the second straight week, had a career night, rushing for 103 yards and three touchdowns, adding another 77 yards through the air.
