re: What do some of you not understand about most of us wanting Harris to start?

you have the ones that bring up the auburn game as if to say that:

1. Harris hasn't learned anything from that experience
2. jennings did better than harris in said auburn game

neither IMO are true

#1 is almost assuredly wrong. I'm sure Harris has learned a lot from the Auburn game.

#2 is absolutely correct. Watch this video: Harris v. Jennings at Auburn

Jennings did MUCH better than Harris in the Auburn game, and it's not even close. In nearly three quarters, Harris completed three passes; only one was over three yards. The one pass over three yards was underthrown into double coverage. It was a long completion. LSU scored on the next play. That's great. Good for Harris. But he still played much worse than Jennings.

For example, LSU had runs of 6, 8, 9, 10, 7, and 6 yards on first down of its first six possessions. Only one of those possessions had a first down. Harris killed a lot of those possessions by fumbling without contact, running the wrong play, or missing BADLY on his throws. Harris was constantly running from a clean pocket.
