With Alexander and Tahj Jones coming back for the Bowl game, I expect LB play to be a real strength, and group speed will be at another level. I doubt there's anywhere to run, and blitz speed will be off the charts, and I mean SICK. Clemson's only hope is that their protection is good, and that they can get something deep, over the top, on our young DB's.......

good luck getting anything but smack on this board. most who inhabit TD think we should curb stomp every opponent and if we don't win by 6 (td's, that is) our coaches suck or our kids are bums. I know Clemson is a fine school and Debo has recruited well and you have some solid skill players who pose real threats....but the game will be won in the trenches and that is where we normally excel. if we execute you are in trouble....if we don't (which we haven't on occasion) it will be very interesting. the '12 version of LSU football has been, frankly, inconsistent and it's been a 'box of chocolates' year.


Thanks for the kind words. Looking forward to the game (hopefully all of it). Maybe we can get the Auburn or Towson version Monday night...

Thanks! And don't worry about passing out near the Dome (Little Fives may be a different story) - we'll treat you much better.

Actually, LSU is more like Ali than Tyson. We dance and jab and jab and jab. It ain't fancy, but late in the fight you have been hit so many times that you quit.

We've yet to have a bad defensive game in any bowl under Miles. Hoping the offense steps up after last year's fiasco.

Here's to making it 20-1-0 for LSU vs the ACC all-time! It's been 57 years since LSU lost to Maryland in 1955, the only loss ever to an ACC team.

Under your five keys--if you really believe that Clemson has to be close to as physical as LSU ya'll are in big trouble...
We may not execute well on offense and we let inferior teams hang around but we will be the most physical team ya'll have seen this year.
We are always very physical and we are very deep...
I think a better key for Clemson would be turnovers or big returns...

I'll give you guys Minter, but can they handle the backs & ends coming out of the backfield? Can they handle the crossing routes of the receivers?



Yes, go back and watch the a&m game. Thats all they did for the first 2 drives. Once Chavis adjusted, lights out.

This game worries me bc of intangibles only. If we show up and act like we want to be there, ESP on defense, Ill relax. We have been way too bipolar this year against teams we should have handled easily. Simon needs to step the frick up big time.

100% agree - and Clemson will do anything and everything they can to minimize their impact, including max protect, screens, draws, jet sweeps, and read-option with them being the read.

That will be our biggest question mark


Maybe screens and draws will have some success but y'all might wanna stay away from running sideways. Chances are you will not outrun us sideline to sideline.

Our running game is going to pound Clemson to dust.

That's really all you need to know about this game.

Good post, good to have you. Bottom line, Boyd and co may give lsu fits here and there but the only way Clemson wins is if LSU doesnt show up in a big way.
