I think this matchup will determine the winner of the game.
Clemson tight db coverage is a must. Burrow loves the short passes between the hash marks. He thrives on the db's who give 7 -10 yard cushions to receivers. Make Burrow throw longer routes that are contested. Don't give him the read and react 4 - 9 yard over the middle routes. It gives him the advantage on down and distance when you do.
I believe Clemson will be able to run on LSU. I'm not convinced LSU will be able to run on Clemson with any degree of dominance. Stop the Burrow short passing game and make him work for the longer passes with lower percentages of completion.
Send LSU home not knowing what went wrong.
