Harris' throw was on the money.

It's like Dupre thought he got too deep and Harris couldn't get it there, so he pulled up a bit, then went into that nerdy white boy backpedal that never works.

Trust me, I've seen enough 8 year old travel baseball to know that never works.

I got it DVR'ed... with an extra hour of time in case it went into overtime.

4 hours of DVR space wasted for a <5 minute game.

It literally went right through his hands I think.

Bad throw . Throw it down the hash is the play design.

Didn't understand why he did that. Then the asshat announcer blames Harris for seeing him late and the throw not being deep enough.

He should have kept running, but it also was not a well thrown ball. If he would have continued running his normal route, he would have been 10 yards past the ball

Harris didn't throw the ball well. He should have thrown it inside and towards the hashes instead of going outside to the sideline

It was a catchable ball.

The throw wasn't perfect, but it wasn't his fault at all. Dupre hesitated when he ran his route, then he started backpedaling which I knew was going to be an incomplete pass.

Yes Dupree shouldn't have backpedaled but the major problem was harris threw it outside which was to the back of dupre and to defender side. Had he thrown it inside (toward middle of field) dupre would have caught it in stride and being turned around wouldn't have been issue.

I thought it was fine that Dupre faced the ball. Coach Ball taught them to do that when the ball is in a position that will make you slow down. I think we're all kinda ignoring the fact that the McNeese State defender was all over Chi. It should've been called PI but Chi just can't get those calls for some reason. In the Bama game last year he constantly had guys all over him.

I know it was a bummer the pass was incomplete, but there were some positives...

1. Harris can throw a nice longball
2. Glad to see we dial up plays like that
3. It was just a poor communication thing which will get fixed.
4. I'm glad to see we have the confidence to air it out like that.

Harris' throw was late. If he had thrown it earlier Dupre wouldn't have had to wait. One consistent problem with the QBs the last few yrs is that they haven't seen the WRs soon enough and they don't throw the ball on time.

There was only like 8 plays. You should see my kids frustration watching the same 8 plays over and over for an hour and a half (I fast forward the commercials).

Harris' throw was late because he was originally going to check it down to Fournette but the LB was on Leonard's arse so he tossed it up to Chi. It's nice to see a QB stay in the pocket and make reads.
