Everyone is blockable, it's just how much effort are you going to put into it. The way to "beat" Clowney (or any DE of this caliber ie Montgomery/Mingo) is to use his aggressiveness against him. The 1 knock on Clowney is he has a tendency to overpursue. Let him penetrate and then get the ball behind him. The question is, do the LSU coaches open the playbook to do this, and can the rest of the line stop the USC's other D-line men while allowing penetration by (or double teaming) JD7?
