Bill Connelly Gets it - Clemson is Balanced


Jan 13, 2020, 10:42 AM

"Again, Clemson is balanced. You not only have to stop the run and the pass, but you also have to stop the between-the-tackles run, the outside run, the QB run game that Clemson breaks out on special occasions, the screen/sideline passing game, the checkdowns to explosive running backs, the intermediate passing game and the deep ball. Clemson will figure out the most vulnerable aspect of your defense and exploit it, even if it takes a little while."

What you need to know for the LSU-Clemson national championship game
The College Football Playoff title game could be a toss-up, with explosive offenses and talented defense on both sides. So how can each team win it all?

Bill Connelly is really good

I know alot of Clemson fans don't like him because his SP+ numbers often underrate our Tigers, but he probably writes the most intelligent pieces of anyone that covers CFB right now.

That was the most on target and balanced piece I have read in the last 2 weeks.

And he still says LSU is going to win

Also said Ohio State dominated most of the game against us. Guess he didn't watch after the first quarter.

He said "Ohio state was the superior team for much of the game"

Is that wrong? I don't think so. They were much better for about the first quarter and a half. We were better for the end of the 2nd and the beginning of the 3rd and then it was pretty even the rest of the way.

I dunno, I don't think it's a crazy thing to say, especially within the context he was using to frame it.

They out-gained us by about 100 yards too.
