He goes up against LSU's D every day in practice.

Do y'all really think one game against a JV opponent is going to make that much of a difference in the outcome next week for Harris or any of our other players?

Personally, I think we'll dominate the team that got outplayed by Landmass-Hattiesburg for 30 minutes last night with or without playing a "tune up" game against McNeese.

He looked nervous in the one series he had, he needed that game last night. Practice is practice and played at a slower pace then a REAL game.

He doesn't go up against the LSU D every day. The offense usually goes up against the practice squad D, which is a bunch of walk-ons and guys who rarely see the field. They're job is to mimic the defense of the upcoming opponent.

Scrimmages are a different story.

Absolutely it is not good with him going the road to start SEC play. Even though it's McNeese establishing the speed of the game is different in practice.

Players don't need real game prep. Offseason film study should be enough. --Rant logic

If that's the case our QBs should of played at an elite level last year...but we all know that wasn't the case. No matter how hard some fans try to down play McNeese as an opponent, we needed to play that game. It is what is at this point.

Um, frick yes.

A win in TS and a solid outing would do wonders for a young fellas confidence. That's quite literally why these games are scheduled.

That's still not the same as live action and the reps behind it.
