Salviati, you know nothing about medicine or ankle injuries. Harris did a 45 min interview on Oct 30 saying he was NOT injured. Drivel and malicious crap like this almost drove him away. Thankfully he tuned it out.

monsterballads.....didn't he literally come in for like one play during the bama game?




Harris came in for only 2 plays and is a better passer, runner, and red zone threat. Harris should have stayed in a series or two with Jennings misfiring and nicked. Harris is a legitimate redzone threat, having scored on 13 of 19 drives, once every 11 plays, mostly shotgun spread, prior to being stuck under center at AUB. All we needed to win the ALA game was one completed redzone pass in the second half where AJ10 misfired on everything. He only led scoring drives on 4 out of 48 possessions in the last 4 SEC games.

3rd QTR: Brandon Harris, a true freshman, entered the game for the Tigers with 3:58 showing on the clock, 3rd qtr. On first down, Williams carried at left end for two yards to the LSU 38. Jennings re-entered.

4th qtr: From the LSU 33, the Tigers offense began. On first down, Fournette carried up the middle for six yards to the LSU 39. (The game announcer said LF was doing really well) Then, on second and four, Fournette was stopped at the LOS for no gain by Landon Collins who came full speed from 12 yds deep and crashed into Fournette helmet-to-helmet. (LF got up dazed, left the field, took his helmet off and stumbled to his right, where he had been hit) That set up third and four at the LSU 39 with under 4:00 on the game clock. A pass by Jennings for Quinn was low and incomplete. That set up a punt by Keehn with 3:45 left in the fourth period. The punt was not fielded, a short kick that rolled out of bounds at the Alabama 24 with 3:38 left in the period, a 37-yard punt.


On first down from the LSU 35, Jennings rolled left under pressure by D.J. Pettway of Alabama, and he had Quinn open on a slant for about 27 yards but the pass was short and fell incomplete. Jennings was injured on the play with 2:34 on the clock. Brandon Harris entered the game at quarterback, but the Tigers called their first timeout of the second half at that point (too long to get Harris in). Play resumed with the Tigers facing second and 10 at the LSU 35. On second down with Harris in the shotgun formation, he kept around left end for seven yards to the LSU 42 where he stepped out of bounds with 2:23 on the clock.(breaking the tackle of Xzavier Dickson, a 6'3" 267lb LB, to get out of bounds and stop the clock on 3rd and 3.) Jennings re-entered the game at quarterback. On third and three, Jennings' pass for Quinn was off target and incomplete, setting up a punt by Keehn with 2:06 on the clock. Keenh's punt was not fielded and was downed at the Alabama one-yard line, a 57-yard punt. The clock read 1:56.

To this point, LSU's defense had held ALA to 1 first down and 30 yds in the second half.

end of 4th: With 21 seconds remaining, Alabama faced third and four at the Tigers 48-yard line. Sims found Christion Jones for a 22-yard gain to the LSU 26 and a first down with 15 seconds on the clock. Sims spiked the ball on first down to stop the clock with 12 seconds left. - LSU had 1 timeout. Why didn't they use it to get Jones "trapped pass" reviewed?

Alabama had moved 55 yards in 9 plays taking just 47 seconds to tie the game.

Griffith kicked off and Fournette received the kick at the LSU six. He returned it 14 yards to the LSU 20 where he was blasted by Alabama's Reuben Foster as time expired, sending the game to overtime.

Before the tackle by Collins, Fournette had gained 191 yards on 42 carries against Ole Miss and Alabama for a 4.5-yard average. After that tackle by Collins, Fournette rushed six times for 10 yards and Fournette gained a season-low nine yards on a season-low five carries in the 17-0 loss at Arkansas on Saturday. In the second half, he had one carry for one yard.
