Is Kirby Smart's faith in Carson Beck justified, or will Clemson expose his weaknesses?

Carson Beck is gearing up for a big challenge as he leads Kirby Smart’s Georgia Bulldogs into a clash with Clemson’s veteran defense.

Beck, has been put under pressure and how he will conduct himself in this game may well determine how his season will end. On the other hand, Clemson’s defense can be described as strong and aggressive without all the frills. And it’s not just a team of old wiser players; it is a well-oiled, well-polished team, it is a team that can beat any of the opponents that come to confront it.

Daniel Moore also recently made a YouTube video where he discussed Clemson’s defensive alignment in the game and said, “It’s not with all due respect! Clemson’s defense is old and in the best kind of way!” He proceeded to explain Clemson’s roster, stating that this is a very experienced group of players, you have seniors and juniors in this team with only a handful of talented sophomore players.
