. I like the kid but go back and look at the 2 plays when we were called on time. If his instinct is to take a fricking sack with a "deer in the headlights" look on his face, THIS year may never come with him under center.
If you have been watching all year you would know that his instinct is to escape pressure, like he has all year. The facts are we have had very few sacks all year and BH has escaped in these situations with positive yards many times. But the leap you take when you say he was sacked (pointing out 2 plays) and looked a certain way equals a failure at the QB position jeopardizing the season is just plain stupid.

Sorry guy, but it looks like no one else thought it was very interesting either judging by the comments, or lack thereof. Lol

LSU thrives on PA off the power run game and if the OL can't block the run, the passing game will suffer. Harris isn't mature enough to carry the team on his back and isn't big enough to run consistently against a defense like Alabama's.
He was mature enough to keep us in the game when the run did nothing in the first half.

Brandon Harris needs further development with the short to intermediate passing game.
He's been making plays all year with no interceptions, accuracy, and one of the highest QBRs.
Your statement should read: LSU needs to further develop their short to intermediate passing game.
Passes designed for the sole purpose of complimenting our run game, is really no passing game at all. Therefore, it can't exist on its own. If BH is put in good situations, he will produce.

I think you're mostly right. I do think he kept us in the game the first half. But for me, we've had opportunities to develop our passing game and have not. BH has proven he's capable and could shoulder more responsibility. They have willfully chosen not to do some things in the passing game and instead rely on Fournette. It's been the story all year, but we magically think these things will appear in big games.

The simple answer is that our game plan was the same game plan we've had all year. Establish Fournette in the face of a defense designed to stop Fournette. Throwing on 3rd down after Fournette fails to get a 1st down would be the most identifiable characteristic of our passing game. We've had success, but don't kid yourself into thinking we have a highly developed passing game. It is all built off of Fournette. It is what we do, and that was the plan against Bama.
So, if you're going to attribute blame, in my opinion, most should go towards a coaching staff that has failed to beat Bama for 5 years in a row.
Lastly, in the face of a poorly designed passing game built for the sole purpose of complimenting our run game, BH kept us in the game during the first half despite the fact.
Everyone knew our passing game would have to evolve to beat Bama....well most everyone knew.

The reason I can blame the coaches is that a true sophomore QB with no touch is our best option.
That wasn't the problem against Alabama. Our best option was Fournette, who we built our offense around. On the contrary, BH kept us in the game the first half when nothing on offense worked, and, by the way, showed nice touch when he wasn't being chased and hit in the face.

Good post, except it reads more like a steady stream of thought lacking conciseness and organization. But your a great guy.

Well, considering LSU has never issued refunds on this scale for a sporting event in their entire existence, I'd say "no time-frame" is probably an accurate answer.

I appreciate payton's challenge. It was a pretty loud, frick you goodell, when they are made to look a-holes for such stupid arse rules.
I agree, I would rather Payton make a statement to the league and jeopardize the game by using all of our challenges in the first quarter. :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Exactly right! This was a textbook "Calvin Johnson" rule situation. One may not agree with the rule, but it has become common knowledge across the league and with fans. There was no excuse for the challenges (both). The challenges were so bad that it make me think they fundamentally don't understand the rule. This is a problem.

Indeed. Always fun watching the game from different seats in Tiger Stadium! Good Luck.

re: Harris vs. Auburn
Posted by JLFarnsworth on 8/9/15 at 2:22 pm to cfontenot4
The point is his character can be revealed through both situations you describe, the former and latter, not just the latter. I agree that the proper mindset and approach to the game is key. To play QB in the SEC, you have to have the mindset you describe and I think both guys have it. More importantly, you have to perform! I think, like you, Harris comes out with the mindset (chip on shoulder looking for blood) and backs it up with a great performance! :cheers: :geauxtigers:
re: Harris vs. Auburn
Posted by JLFarnsworth on 8/9/15 at 12:27 pm to cfontenot4
I would argue a dominant performance in the first SEC game reveals more about his character bc of what transpired last year and the expectations for this year. You wouldn't agree with that?
