A. do you believe joe will be shutdown in some way on the biggest game of his young career and not continue to KILL in the red zone?
B. do you think long hair lawrence will be able to answer every single lsu drive and our defense will simply have no stops?
C. do you think clemson's D will force LSU 3-and-outs or joe throws several INTs?
D. do you think Clyde and Curry will suddenly be unable to gash for 10+ yards?
E. do you think Marshall, Moss, Jefferson & Chase will all suddenly be unable to get open?
seriously guys, LSU is a buzzsaw right now, Clemson is getting flayed alive.

I'm really feeling it too. Defense needs a few stops and that's church. I don't think anyone can stop us this year. Except us.

I like LSU by 17-24 points
it just feels like LSU is on a mission...we're going to win the national title...

According to the CPI Index, Oklahoma's ranking in Strength of Schedule was 63. Interestingly, we scored 63 on them.
Clemson's rank is #49, so I predict we'll score 49 on them.
BTW - LSU's strength of schedule is ranked #4. I think Clemson will beat that score.

My biggest worry is if Clemson can get pressure with their front 4 and slow us down in the red zone like Auburn. Other concern would be Clemson receivers getting cone wide open looks like the Bama game.

The biggest thing I'm concerned with is the OL missing assignments because of Clemson's defensive stunts. The OL will make some mistakes. But oh well, Burrow will just have to scramble and make a few completions on the run.
I'm not as concerned about the D. I believe Aranda has a plan. A really good plan.
Special teams? No concerns.

Lawrence is good and there is a chance of turnovers. Clemson is one of 3-4 teams who can play with us if we aren’t playing crisp.

Because Myles Brennan will have been put in along with 2nd and 3rd stringers.

Clempson has no idea what kind of pain train is coming their way.

they wouldn’t be the first team to keep a game close into the 4th quarter with us.

Look, I’m as confident as can be but I still think it will be a shootout.
Our D is susceptible to misdirection and to plays downfield. Lawrence is a better quarterback than Fromm and Hurts and they missed some plays.
Clemson will get some stops, both in the red zone and early in drives. I don’t think they can get enough.

We only scored 37 on UGA’s top defense. Clemson has the #1 D in the nation. They will probably hold us in the 30s and they can certainly put up 30+ on us. They pistol whipped a great Bama team last year. Auburn, UF and Bama were all close games in the 4th. This game is going to be very close in the 4th.

I personally expect a bit of a shootout with LSU pulling away late.
I don't see either team shutting the other down

It will be like the Georgia game - except Clemson will actually score. It was only 17-3 at half, and Georgia had missed open passes and field goals. It could have very easily been a one possession or tied game at half if Georgia's offense was halfway competent.
Georgia stuffed our running game and their red zone defense forced us to attempt three field goals in the first half. Given that Clemson has an offense, the game will be close in the 4th if they can do what Georgia did on defense.

Clemson has not faced any team playing like LSU will be in New Orleans. OSU was the closest and they shoulda beat Clemson

If Sam Ehlinger and Texas can, then it is not beyond the realm of possibility that Lawrence and Clemson can
please note can does not mean will, just a possibility.

Clemson defense will force some stops. I foresee a close LSU victory. If we turn the ball over, we will lose.

This game feels like the Bama game...we will jump out to quick big lead...Clemson always starts slow...then we hold on for 10 pt win.

Ever heard of ball control?
Long, scoring, time consuming drives can keep Joe off the field better than any defense can.
It's how the so-called superteam scoring machines are usually beat in such games. Nebraska had a super team, a legit one, then it ran into Miami in the Orange Bowl. Miami was an unknown at the time. Miami played ball control, ate up that clock while scoring touchdowns.
Then Nebraska was so used to blowing out teams all year long that it's starters weren't used to playing in the fourth quarter. Fatigue began to play a role.
Go see Sugar when Bama beat Miami. Super offense was kept off the field. That is how you beat Joe Burrow. Long drives that eat clock and score.
