Episode Details

Clemson’s challenge against LSU is not just stopping the run. It is stopping the run without falling into Lane Kiffin’s trap.

Morgan Thomas breaks down why LSU’s running back room creates a real problem for Clemson’s defense. Caden Durham brings experience, contact balance, and receiving ability. Harlem Berry gives LSU explosive speed and space-player potential. Dilin Jones adds physicality, pass protection value, and three-down versatility.

That variety makes LSU’s run game dangerous, but it also makes the play-action and RPO game even more dangerous. If Clemson’s linebackers and safeties start guessing, Kiffin can attack the windows behind them.
