VIDEO: LSU Star Joe Burrow Was Automatic in Basketball Shooting Competition vs Oklahoma
By Karl Rasmussen
At this point, we're beginning to wonder if there's anything Joe Burrow can't do. The Heisman winner had a masterful season, leading LSU to the No. 1 ranking and the top seed in the College Football Playoff. Ahead of their clash with Oklahoma, the Sooners and Tigers engaged in a friendly basketball shooting competition, and Burrow absolutely stole the show.

Burrow simply could not miss, draining virtually every shot he took from the free-throw line and 3-point territory.
The Heisman winner was the final participant to shoot in the contest, and it went down to the final shot, which Burrow swished from beyond the arc.

Joe Burrow won it with the final shot.
Despite being a near lock for the first overall pick in the upcoming draft, it looks like Burrow has a fallback option with a career in basketball if things don't go according to plan in the NFL.
With a jumper like that, we can think of at least a few teams who may be willing to give the Ohio native a shot.
