"Harris did it vs. a prevent defense"

Umm...isn't a prevent defense supposed to prevent exactly the type of plays that he was making?
I don't understand this argument.

FACT The D was much more predictable by that time in the game

I don't understand a coach playing back ups when his team was on the ropes at the end of the game. Oh wait no that was love the starting CB that dupre scored on.

I'm as much a Harris fan as anyone, but you don't see how throwing against a 3-man front and 3-over-the-top is easier than a defense that's playing honest?

They were not playing prevent his first 2 drives.
There's a difference in full prevent vs. Cover 3 and Cover 4 zones

8 db's on the field and he shredded them

Yeah. It showed his ability to go through his progressions. Something you don't see as much from AJ.
Posted on 9/22/14 at 7:38 pm to Powerman
Were they playing the same style of defense when they knocked AJ out of the game?

The title of this thread, if it were to make the most sense, would be:
"Harris did it vs. a shitty pass defense"
Which he did. But Miles' playcalling demands and Jennings' limitations prevented the exploitation of MSU's biggest weakness from happening until it was too late.
Coaching Grade: F-minus

Who completes passes over the top of a prevent D?
Anyways the offense sure did look like a Cam Cameron offense when Harris was in. Multiple vertical completions, check down to the RB coming out of the backfield. That pass to Dural on what looked like a deep comeback between 2 DBs playing zone.
I might be the only LSU fan on the planet whose excitement for the future of the skill players on offense (Harris, Dupre, Fournette, Williams) overshadowed the loss to Miss St.

They were not in a prevent. It's was their first team D in. The only time they were in prevent was the last series.

Good point IMO but I wonder if Moo had backups in? That'd be a better indication.

If you can't acknowledge that Harris didn't face the same defense that Jennings did, then you aren't being honest.
The argument is that he excelled with his opportunity...and Jennings certainly couldn't have done the same Saturday night.

The fact is that Harris did it. Jennings was missing open receivers badly. They should've yanked him sooner IMO.

Hey, you guys remember when the 2002 team, coached by someone other than Les Miles, managed to lose a game against Arkansas by switching to the prevent at the end?
Prevent defenses don't work sometimes, and it definitely was way different than what Jennings had been seeing all game.

Their D was playing soft. Have you ever noticed when we're up late in close game and the other team always tends to march right on down the field on us? Well it's kinda like that.
Posted on 9/22/14 at 8:12 pm to Powerman
the prevent is supposed to prevent what bama did to us last year.
Posted on 9/22/14 at 8:13 pm to Powerman
Here's the thing.... It doesn't matter what kinda defense Harris was throwing the ball against compared to Jennings. What mattered is that Harris's passes hit their mark while Jennings is skipping ten yard passes off the turf to receivers. Even though it may not be a regular thing for Jennings, if he has struggled the whole first half then give Harris a shot while you are still in the game and have a chance to win. Don't wait until it is out of reach to give him his chance.
He may have been just as bad but it sure as hell couldn't have been any worse. He could've came in and lit it up and got us the win too!

I didn't read the whole thread but here's hour answer. Jennings couldn't pull the trigger he saw open guys but didn't trust he could make the throws. Harris will throw picks but look at his first pass to Quinn.
