Here is what to expect from Venables tomorrow

Iowa State's 3 High Safety Look
There's an article on the Athletic going over how Venables and Clemson went to Matt Campbell in Ames, IA to pick up what they do on defense.
It's predicated on a 3 down linemen concept with three high safeties and variety of different position players in the middle. Iowa State has had quite a bit of success from it even though they're in the run n' gun Big 12.
I honestly think this is Clemson's "difference maker" for LSU on Monday. It's nice that they played Ohio State first because Clemson essentially showed their final hand since they were down early in that game on the brink of being eliminated. I don't they were holding anything back, personally. Unlike last year when it was rumored that they didn't show anything against ND before destroying Bama.
They had to throw the entire kitchen sink against Ohio State and they still almost lost. Here were there two adjustments they relied on..
On offense: run the ball with T Law
On defense: send a variety of blitzes with three down linemen and three high safeties to clog the middle of the field and create confusion
I think LSU needs to sell out on the run on defense and on offense utilize their tempo so Clemson can't make substitutions and FEED THE DAMN BALL IN THE PASSING GAME TO CLYDE among other things (obviously) to beat this extremely talented Clemson team.

Our running game will have 200+ yards if they play 3 high safetys....that’s what we ended up doing against Auburn when they had so many DBs in the game. And Auburn’s front 4 were much better

This is the first thing that has given me a bit of pause about what Clemson might be doing.
Venables is a good DC. He's not going to try anything that hasn't worked. I think we win big, but it might take the offense a drive or two to figure it out.
With all of this, hopefully there is some confusion or busted coverages.

I’m going out on a limb and say you are speculating

Oh ok, so CEH gonna eat.

The single biggest offensive facet that will kill Clemson is LSUs ability to run the playbook without substituting.
They can go tempo and not only keep subs out but jack up presnap reads sent in by BV.
They will be forced into a base defense for stretches.

If we establish a power rushing attack they will have to pull out one D-Back and insert another linebacker. This will open the pass up. If we can run on that speciality defense prepared for this game, we blow up their plans.

I think we will move fast giving their D some issues trying to change at the last second. If we can keep them more vanilla we win the scheme battle and hopefully put points up.

I like Clyde 1 on 1 with their 2 240 white linebackers in coverage.

Definitely will be some busted converages with trying to implement too much in two weeks of time

The only thing stopping LSU tomorrow evening will be LSU
This is a once in a lifetime Offense and Venables and Clemson know it.

If they do this, expect Clyde, Thad and His Highness Master Jefferson from the slot to have monster games

Dumb. Clemson’s best bet is to figure out what they do best and stick to it. They don’t have the safeties to pull that off either way.

Make sure Joe has seen this. Aight

The defensive wrinkle Clemson learned from Iowa State that could decide the national title
It's literally in the title LOL
Hope you have a subscription

Clemson knows LSU will move the ball between the 20's. Clemson is hoping to make LSU kick field goals once they reach the red zone. Its they're only hope in stopping LSU.

This is what they do best. Confusion. That's the name of the game.
This is what propelled them to beat Ohio state because "what they do best" was getting them skull dragged
Some ya'll have never studied that game and it shows

Fairly insightful.
A Clemson poster said they were going to use their best athlete on defense... the hybrid LB/Safety as a spy on Clyde.
If they do the spy on CEH. burrow will send him wide and take the guy out of the play.
