We switched to a 3-2-6 in the second half of the OSU game. If we can't get D-line pressure against Burrow, you might see a 3-1-7.

Yep - he's a LB playing safety in a dime package. What I think some are calling inverted Tampa 2. Anyway, there is probably going to be a package that we've never seen, designed to rattle Burrow, get pressure on him and tie up his receivers until a defender can get to him. I think that's the only way to beat their offense - press man with zone help that morphs into a green dog blitz from underneath. A 3-1-7 seems right to me, but will be hard to stay with if they get anything going in the run game.
I wonder how willing they would be to play run if we foul up their passing game. If we can just hold them between the 20s, I think we can deal with them just fine on the red zone.

They do have an outstanding running back.

That’s what Auburn did, with some success.
I’m not throwing stones, but my sense is that Auburn’s pass rush was as good or better than yours. Burrow and Brady and E were able to adjust.

No offense , but Brady E isn’t in Brent Venables level.

But the difference between Clemson and Auburn is Clemson's Offense. If Clemson can contain LSU in the Redzone (which I think we can), I don't see LSU slowing down Clemson enough to keep it manageable. I expect Clemson to zone read LSU to death tomorrow night. Oklahoma ate LSU up on the zone read, but completely abandoned it late in the 2nd.

I hope he is okay. Hate this for him. Hopefully he can contribute in some way.
All hands on deck tomorrow night!
