Clemson's OL is comparable to LSU's OL. The ways that they differ is in their different blocking schemes.

Clemson's OL really excels at run & zone blocking but they are not as good as LSU at pass blocking which is why Lawrence has so many rushing attempts and yards.

LSU's OL is good at run blocking but really excels at pass blocking. Burrow runs as a last resort compared to Lawrence who runs out of necessity.

If you compare sack stats, Clemson gave up 16 sacks so far to LSU's 30. I don't know if this is a relevant metric to compare because of how different each team is offensively, but it is a fact.

It is so difficult to judge simply because they play such shitty teams in the ACC. A&M was probably the best team they played till Ohio State.

Ohio State got pressure, though they didn't always get the sack. LSU just can't let Lawrence sit back and sling it. I think we can, but we also have to minimize the damage he does scrambling.
