re: The Offense Hasn't Been the Main Problem

People forget how well he was doing before the Bama game when he got injured.

Yep, he was very solid in the game against Florida, making some really nice throws. I don't remember when his injury occurred against Alabama but his presnap read on his TD pass to Dural was a thing of beauty.

The Bama secondary was in a 2 deep safety look. Harris somehow picked up a key presnap that the corner lined up over Dural in the slot would be blitzing on the play. That meant the safety shaded to that side of the field would have Dural one on one. That's a matchup that favored the Tigers especially since Travin was running a go route with a free release & the safety would be flat footed having to pick him up. Brandon made the right read & it resulted in an easy pitch & catch TD pass. In the gif, you can see #5 blitzing off the edge. Had Bama stayed in the presnap 2 high safety look, this throw wouldn't have been possible & is probably picked off.


He needs to be able to do that more on a consistent basis which he should because this is the type of read that comes with game experience.
