Clemson Fixed the Secondary. But Can It Stop LSU’s Run Game?

Clemson’s secondary may be dramatically better after portal additions, but that could shift the pressure to the defensive front.   Morgan Thomas breaks down whether Clemson’s defensive tackles can hold up against LSU’s run game in the season opener. With Peter Woods, T.J. Parker, and Damonte Capehart gone, the Tigers need players like Amare Adams, Vic Burley, Markus Strong, Andy Burburija, and Devarrick Woods to become reliable quickly.   Key topics include LSU’s potential rushing attack, Lane Kiffin’s matchup plan, Clemson’s interior defensive line concerns, and whether improved secondary play could force opponents to attack the Tigers on the ground.   00:00 Clemson’s defensive identity is changing 05:35 Why LSU may target Clemson’s interior 07:02 Clemson’s defensive front faces a real test 17:17 Replacing Peter Woods and T.J.
