Clemson's D is suspect at best vs good offenses

This isn't last years Clemson with 3 DL drafted high.
This year's version has great stats, but look at their cupcake competition.
tOSU smoked them for 500+, and they are known more for their defense then offense prowess. Even Virginia put up some fairly gaudy numbers on these clowns.
They play so few quality teams, it's hard to get a measure on them, but judging by what I've seen this game is gonna go like the semifinal with them down 16-0 but LSU, unlike OSU, will keep the pedal down and end it by the the start of the 4th quarter in a rout...
I've got LSU covering both spreads, 56-21

But Clemson’s defense shut down the best passing offense they played all season which was Wake Forest. Their D is legit.

The entire team gets exposed. Good team no doubt but they get exposed

They’re living off of last year vs. Bama, and the fact that they’ve played no one this year so they’re still an unknown after 14 games. I’m very confident that we beat them by 10+. It’ll be a UF type game
They’re very arrogant and entitled as a whole considering OSU was beating their arse and only lost because they cracked under pressure, I’ve never seen a team play well after giving off the vibe that they have for the past few weeks.

You people are really going to be hurting Monday night. It's okay to believe y'all will win but 56-21?? Cmon man live in this world. We have up 23 and 17 to OSU and UVA so keep trashing our D if you want to but that is much better than y'all have been against some Os that couldn't score 10 points against us.

I think you are pretty close to spot on
Posted on 1/7/20 at 8:47 pm to SouthdownsTiger4178
Their defense is pretty good but didn't look too good vs Ohio St. Just did what they needed to get done

Bless your heart...it's gonna hurt. Hold my hand if you need to.

Yep more so against good or even decent QBs.
Their offense is humming though!

Clemson fans are obviously thnking they have last years team, it's kinda hilarious...if not pathetic.
Your secondary is porous and the blitzing will only make it worse...
Ya are simply outmatched...

Clemson's D is just substandard vs the best offense college football has ever seen.
Clemson will crumble and this game will be over by half.

Dude we’ve played defenses all year that are just as good as you guys are. What makes you believe that the almighty Clemson D is going to stop us when no one has all year? These are some very good defenses that we’ve played. Auburn, Alabama, TA&M, Georgia, Florida and Oklahoma was supposed to have a decent defense by the time we faced them (which we saw straight through BTW). We see straight through you guys also.
Yes Clemson has a great defense and team. There’s no doubt about that. Here’s the deal though, these top 10 defenses all threw different things at LSU including running defenses with personnel that they haven’t used all season simply because they could clearly see on tape that this offense is extremely dangerous to deal with using typical LBs and safeties.
Our Defense has also played some good offenses in Ole Miss, Florida and Texas. Some great offenses in Oklahoma and Bama. Texas was a different team when LSU played them at their place. They were also extremely confident until LSU played them. Ole Miss caught us off guard with their QB runs plus that score was 28-0 at one point and 35-7 at another.
The main reason that our defense gave up so many points and yards was because they knew that they had plenty of points on the scoreboard to take plays off. Since the Ole Miss game though the defense felt disrespected and have since turned things around and now are playing as a top 5 defense. It really doesn’t matter what happened at the start of the season or the middle. The fact of the matter is that LSU is now playing great on defense and this offense is one of the best in the history of college football. We’ve broken records that are not easy to break against some really good defenses and DC’s.
I think Clemson will be tough to stop on offense because the offense is legitimately strong but I’m not sure if even the All American defense could stop this offense, maybe slow it but not stop it. You guys will find out that this is a very unique offense because it is. No one else runs this type of offense or at least I haven’t seen it. We also happen to have players who run it extremely effectively, especially the QB.
Unless LSU turns the ball over several times and or Clemson can sack Burrow on 3rd downs because just sacking him on first and second down means nothing, then this offense will score 38 to 45 points or more imo. That’s not wishful thinking at all. But even though our defense is playing so well at this time, I think it’s just as possible that Clemson can score with us.

If I'm not mistaken, they played against the backup quarterback for Wake.

It’s converting yards to points.
They’re good in the redzone.
But I also Feel like Burrow is much better than Fields which gives you a huge edge.

The way I see it, tOSU went into a game with Clemson.
Every pundit in the college football world termed tOSU the most complete team in college football. And it surely looked that way in the first quarter.
That is where it ended.
It was ended by Clemson.
Last year Alabama had a team similar to LSU that rolled over everybody and was ranked number 1 the entire season.......Until they met Clemson.
Do not sleep on Clemson. Do not disrespect Clemson.
Let them Disrespect LSU. Do the talking on the field.
All of these arm chair football players, screaming Frick this and frick that and frick you, sounding like idiots, probably can't run from their recliner to the refrigerator for a beer without sweating profusely.These are the same people who jump up and scream " WE WON" when their favorite team wins a game, when in reality, they had nothing to do with it.
They have no right to disrespect any team or any player who actually takes the field and plays the game, win or lose.
All of these young men should be respected, if for no other reason than getting to this point in the season and their accomplishments throughout this season, win or lose.
Without them, none of you FRICK screaming idiots would be watching or cheering anything come Monday night.
These lunatics talking about throwing piss balloons on Clemson fans. Go ahead and do it. I hope you do it and I hope you're arrested and sued when you do. Lets see how you beat your chests in a jail cell where everybody in there is tougher and more hardened than you and you sit there balled up in a corner waiting for someone to bail your lame asses out.
Be humble, hope for the best, be respectful, respect the other fans who are there for the same reason as you. Go Tigers. One heartbeat.
Good day
