LSU head coach Ed Orgeron spoke to the media on Thursday morning in Atlanta and provide the following update Clyde Edwards-Helaire (hamstring).
quote:

Q. Ed, what's Clyde's status?
ED ORGERON: Clyde has not practiced yet. He ran a little bit yesterday, ran straight ahead. Medically, hopefully, he's cleared to practice. I don't know if he will. It would be the first day he would. I think he may try something today. I'm not sure.

It's going to be a game-time situation. Knowing Clyde, if he can play, he's going to try. We're really not sure yet. Do I want him to play? Yes. Do I expect him to try to play? Yes. How much he can play? I don't know.

Q.Is he getting treated now instead of being here?
ED ORGERON: Um-hmm, yeah.

Q. If he isn't able to play, do you change stuff up in your game plan or plug and play with the next guy?
ED ORGERON: We have three backs. Clyde does it all. Now, we've got three backs that are strong in each one of those areas, so we're going to have to use them. Tyrion, John Emery, and Chris Curry.

You can expect all three of those backs to play in different situations.

Rest that hammy for tOSU game. Plus we can unleash the stable of backs for more than just a series or two.

He really shouldn’t play at all.

Being it's a hammy which can easily be re-aggravated I say rest him. Good depth at RB and LSU still has more than enough offense to light up Oklahoma. Get him back 100% for the national title game.

I expect him in the game sparingly even as a Decoy. This game is bigger than anyone realize.

Don’t know what your sayin but I think most of us especially the players realize this is a pretty important playoff game or so I’ve read.
