In case you were wondering why LSU steamrolled the competition this season, the tweet above should tell you everything you need to know.

The most notable player on the team was Heisman winner Joe Burrow, but there were future NFL players all over the field for LSU this season.
Now, 16 of them will take the field in front of NFL scouts at the combine to prove they deserve to get drafted in a high position.

Whether you hate or love LSU, you can’t deny the Tigers had an unreal roster this past season. We’ll see how many of them can hack it in the NFL. I certainly wouldn’t want to bet against them.
