With 3 or 4. Blitzing does no good.
Burrow's been great against the blitz all year but I don't think Clemson has a choice; think they'll have to send at least 5 to generate enough pressure. Venables is very good at disguising where the blitz is coming from, but he'll have to be at his best to fool Burrow...

If Clemson has to blitz to get pressure then they are toast. Even if you disguise the blitz and only bring 5, LSU's offensive line has been great at giving Burrow enough time to find the mismatch.
Clemson blitzed OSU a ton, and Dobbins was open all night in the flat. If Clemson does the same, Clyde and Moss will eat.
Auburn's defense has had the most success slowing LSU down, and it was because they were able to pressure Burrow with 3 or 4 and drop 7 or 8 into coverage. Unfortunately for Clemson, Derrick Brown and Marlon Davidson aren't suiting up on the 13th.
