After LF's performance last week, coaches from this point forward will make it a point (even if that means run blitzing every play ) to stop LF. With that being said, only a few teams have the talent and scheme to truly stop the LF/Williams/Guice onslaught.

So, which game(s) will Harris have to be the difference maker (i.e., carry the team and win the game)?

A&M, Ole Miss, and Bama will all have the best chance but we will still try to wear them down. Miles isn't changing his philosophy because a game is close.

It doesn't matter how many run blitzes are called, Leonard Fournette will not be stopped.

Harris making plays with his legs makes that defensive gameplan so much tougher, imo.

We have so much speed on the edges Omg

Blitzing someone like LF7 often is a huge gamble. He is good at reading it and he will start burning them.

One of these does not fit. One of these should allow plenty of mid-field runs... especially of the 3rd and long variety

He's so elusive back there too. That scramble run on 3rd down going left to right on your screen with about 3:30 left in the 1st quarter... wow. That little shimmy he made to get out of the pocket was awesome.

We have a chance to be one of the most dynamic running teams of all-time, between Fournette and Harris, plus Guice and Williams.

If Bama's front seven doesn't stop Fournette every play, then he's off to that secondary... Good luck Bama

You see that too, eh?!

Guice's run that almost went for a TD.....I mean, there are no words.

If by "win a game" you mean convert some third downs and pose a legitimate threat to pass, then yes, BH will have to win a game or two for LSU.

But it will not be becessary for BH to have to put the team on his back and carry them to victory a la Vince Young vs. USC.

Pitches, shovel passes, chest passes, read option, the list goes on and we aren't even in our 3rd game.

I don't know about y'all but Harris has looked great to me.

I think our offensive line and LF7 can manhandle any team on our schedule. I still can't help but think that relying on them too much will get us in trouble. For us to reach our full potential, the coaches have to show more confidence in the QB/WRs. Once we do that, I don't think anyone will be able touch us. These are all highly original, rarely discussed concepts.

They have brought back the 4 Horsemen.

More like 5 horsemen with Brosette.

I disagree that Harris will have to win a game. He will have to pass for more than 100 yds but won't have to win it. I don't think Ole Miss has the lbs to stop or slow down the run game. Bama is the only team who probably has the dline and lbs to challenge the running game.

Harris got two scores before LF had his first.

He looked so much more decisive. When he kept that ball on the first TD I was so happy.

"Bama can only beat themselves"


So ... I guess Harris will have to ask Bama nicely to frick up.

I would love to open it up and be more of a threat with our wr's but in all honestly all BH has to do is be average and we will win. I think if he was called upon to drive us down the field with his arm he could.
