LSU and Clemson tie up tonight for College Football's National Championship.  We talked to some Ohio State fans who say they are pulling for LSU because of their hometown hero, Joe Burrow.  

"We came here because we thought Ohio State would be in it," said these tourists.  "Joe Burrow is from Ohio, we're from Ohio so we are LSU fans this week."   

"Burrow's movement is impeccable, his escapability is impeccable, so if he can create and open up space for people to get open down the field, then it's going to be a tough time for Clemson, but they are a good team and well coached," said one man we talked to.  

"We have so many weapons on offense, even if they have one good cornerback or one good linebacker we will get them in their weak spot," said this woman.   

"It will be a close game but LSU will score more points than Clemson," another football fan said. 

It's a 7:15 p.m. kickoff tonight in the Mercedes Benz Superdome.  You can hear it here on WWL.
