What do we think ST will play in this game?
Clemson is some 12/20 in FGs and has had kicking and return issues.
Dabo gettin' in that arse
quote:

Are you kidding me?” Swinney hollered as Potter trotted off the field, before following Potter as he walked down the sideline, still yelling. The outburst sparked conversation on social media, with some insisting that Swinney had gone too far, including former South Carolina kicker Elliott Fry.
“Really bold move to try and ruin your young kickers confidence in a cupcake game,” Fry wrote in a tweet.



Ftr, I don't think that leadership style works on everyone...but that SC kicker is a puss

What kick/return issues?

Clemson is 29th in Net Punting and 13th in KR defense. LSU is 83rd in Net Punting and 91st in KR defense.

Clemson's only weakness is FG accuracy, which is a legit weakness. But Potter averages 1.3 attempts per game. It didn't matter in the OSU game, so I doubt it will matter here.

Why would it matter here anyway since 50% of LSU fans think they will score 50+ points with a season average of 48 against a team with a scoring defense of 11/game.

Stats are irrelevant given the schedule.

OU had not allowed a 300 yard passer all season long.. LSU threw for like 500..

Potter got yelled at for screwing around on the sideline and not being ready to go into the game.

He raced onto the field at the last second................then missed a chip shot.


Elliott Frye played for the South Carolina Gamecocks.
Nuff about him.

OU gave up 282 yards and 5 TDs to 7-6 Iowa state. We're all impressed with Burreauxxexx

LSU has had very few kicks returned against them so that KR d stat is useless

Bama might’ve been in the playoffs if their FG accuracy were a little better. Not sure why you’re downplaying such an important role.

Bother to watch any LSU games?
LSU barely ever punts. kickoffs, almost always go through the end zone.

Clemson and LSU are probably even in Kickoff distance (almost all through the endzone)

No idea on punting. Our punter is good, but he regularly gets out punted by opposing kickers. I haven't paid any attention to LSU's punting.

LSU has a decided advantage in Field Goal kicking.

Clemson is typically good in kick coverage. Clemson doesn't typically get alot of yards on kick returns.
