ND defensive coordinator

Will be the next Vanderbilt head coach. Is that the excuse ND needs when Trevor and Travis hang 50 on them?

I think if Clemson blows this one open it will look more like the 2018 game than a 49-21 game. Maybe 31-10? I don’t think it would be our defense that gives way, unless left on the field a ton, but rather our offense that is stymied by Venables. Kelly has a habit of sometimes bringing poor offensive game plans and then never getting it going, especially against talented defenses like the one Clemson has.
Also, everyone is licking their chops at over 61, but I’m thinking the under hits by a bit.

I’m not assuming we blow out ND, but I agree that I see

any big lead to be the result of BV and a healthy Clemson D really flustering ND.

Blitzing Book with big numbers is often the wrong move. If you can simulate pressure with four or five he sometimes gets uncomfortable, even if there is no clear path to him. He still tends to be too cautious with the ball. I bet you that Venables drops 7-8 into coverage frequently.

I agree. No discredit to ND, but BV has been known to be dangerous with time to prep. He’s a film nut of course. It will be interesting and challenging against a tough ND OL. The biggest difference on D will be Skalski though. He plays a complete game healthy and it could be third-fourth string 4th qtr for the Tigers.

They’re going to have to find ways to confuse Kyren Williams too. His pass protection pick ups in the first game were the best I’ve ever seen out of a college back:

I agree that Williams was amazing in the first game picking up the blitz.
One area where I could see a change is with Tyler Davis back for Clemson and ND's starting Center out for the game.
If support has to be given to the Center, it could make things a little tougher than the last game where all of your OL essentially held their 1 on 1 for pass plays.
I think Tyler Davis will have to play a massive game to give Clemson the upper hand in terms of the DL vs OL battle when ND has the ball.
