Clemson Copycat Plays

Saban said at halftime during the title game last year that Clemson was running stuff on offense that they had never seen before.

You have to believe they will do the same thing against LSU, especially since they have more time to prepare this time around.

And defensively they're going to be studying the Auburn tape probably more than any other game. We racked up yards against Auburn, but couldn't convert in the red zone - and this is exactly how Ohio State ended up losing the game.

Won’t matter. LSU wins

Could easily see Clemson trying to run Lawrence as John Rhys Plumlee or some of the other looks that gave us issues.

Plumlee would be crossing the goal line by the time Lawrence got the 50...

I don't think people understand how fast that kid is

I’m worried about the speed of Etienne & Lawrence outside the tackle box especially on misdirection play

Our linebackers play has been fine since Ole Miss. I think they'll play disciplined, and I'm hoping their speed will prevent those big runs/screens.

I think you're going to see Hampton in deep centerfield a lot to prevent big plays.

Got to think that we will be "bend but don't break" with our back 7, given how well the offense is playing and how dangerous Clemson is, also with how our defensive line is getting pressure now.

Clemson can sandbag a lot of their concepts all season where Bama & LSU don’t have that luxury. Neither can Ohio st. That’s why TL was fresh and ran all over a Osu D loaded w NFL talent. If Clemson had a few actual opponents capable of winning Osu May have had some film of TL running

When Joe’s dropping 40-50 yard dimes to Jefferson and co. it doesn’t make a shite how good their red zone D is.

I love OUR concept, but I would steal the shite out of individual plays and add them to our arsenal if I thought it would help. Especially since my opponent had never seen me use it before.

Makes being a DC a whole lot more challenging. Imagine having to get ready for a team by analyzing film of your opponent and EVERYOTHER teams, every single play for every single game.

Gives the O a tremendous advantage.

I'd venture to say that we could run just about any other team's plays better than they could because of talent at every position.

Ah. Good point.

I’ll pass on the memo. Thanks

Imagine playing a schedule so weak that you could finish your regular season undefeated and not having to show % of your plays. I would expect Clemson has a pile of sandbagged plays/formations that they haven’t needed yet.
