I don't think Clowney is a bad player, and he should be considered as one of the best defensive players in the nation. I think the problem for South Carolina is we lost a lot on defensive. We lost all our starting linebackers, some safeties, and our left defensive end. Georgia really exploited that yesterday. 90% of their run plays were ran away from Clowney. When Murray passed it was a 3 step drop most of the time. Last year we had the linebackers to stop Gurley and this year we didn't. The problem is the rest of the defensive isn't on par with Clowney.
Teams the rest of the season are going to try to quick screen us or run into our linebackers to get away from Clowney. ESPN has hyped Clowney to mythical proportions. I think the only way he could live up to expectations it is to have 6 sacks a game, uncover Jimmy Hoffa, and turn super saiyan.
I just have to hope Georgia loses twice, but I only see one loss to LSU.
sooooo trueee
