pretty sure this is every throw.

harris was not the problem that night. Harris threw the ball well, actually. Wide Receivers dropped too many balls.

WRs didn't help at all but there's at least 4 bad throws there.

Not blaming Harris completely, but this video was pretty painful.

Easily should have started 7/7 for >100

Easily should have finished with 11 comps

EMU used the Hack a Shaq strategy.

If not for that, there would have been a few big passes and much better numbers all around.

Thank you for producing the footage. Dupre, Dural had several drops and the footage proves it. Sure, Harris made some bad throws, but his night should have been much better than his 4/15 stats. I would not be surprised to see Quinn play quite a bit this week, provided he catches what's thrown to him.

Not sure what the problem was last week with Dural & Dupre but hope they shake off whatever it is!

there were some bad throws, but it's hard to get in a rhythm when nothing is working.

Dupre's ball in the endzone should have been caught. I'm convinved that ball was a little behind on purpose since the Safety was in the throwing lane.

Exactly. then Harris' confidence is sky high and he would have gotten probably 20 attempts.

Didn't really matter where that ball was going. MD had no body control and was falling

Those interference calls were legit and probably completions without interference.

I agree. I was at the game and haven't watched the replay yet, but Dural should have caught the ball thrown on the deep post in the end zone. That was a beautiful throw.

Dupre also made a piss poor play on the fade in the end zone. Instead of stopping and high pointing the ball, he kept running and allowed the DB to make a play on the ball. I also thought Dupre could have caught the ball in the back of the end zone.

Dural gave a pretty shitty effort on the hitch thrown to the sideline. The worst throw in that video was the under thrown deep ball to Diarse.

With Beckham and Landry Harris has 200+ yards and at least 2 TDs on Saturday. The dropoff at the WR position is just as big, if not bigger than the dropoff at QB since the 2013 season.

Harris threw 3 bad balls and 2 drew DPI. He was not the problem. His screen throw was bad, but under pressure he just threw it at LF7 not to him. I was pissed about his performance, but rewatching his passes make me feel better. That was easily the worst game by LSU WRs that I've seen since Dwayne Bowe needed eye surgery.

I saw 2 passes that were straight up drops. Otherwise, not the best execution by wrs getting separation or balls being thrown deep enough. Malachi looks really raw in his understanding of controlling his body to receive the ball. I think he lost his balance on the jump ball in the endzone though.

As far as the passing game, it's not as bad as some are making it out to be and it's not as good as some people make it out to be. We are talking about a passing game that relies on 20+ yard jump balls. Also, still the worst screen passing team in the nation. Harris was a little late on some of the deep balls and they were under thrown for the most part, but wrs are not getting separation is the main problem I see. I think the drops people are bringing up are exaggerated. I didn't notice many that were right in the hands catchable balls. Malachi's "drop" in the endzone was on Dupre in my opinion for not sitting in the zone in the lane, but given that his momentum carried him too far, that was a tough catch.

Acceptable. If the WR's played halfway decent, Harris would have had a big day.

Some of those pass interference calls bailed Harris out. He missed on the screen and on an out route. Dupre should have made a play on the end zone fade from the slot that the defender batted down(could have intercepted, batted the ball with both hands.). Yes he had drops, but all in all, this wasn't a good performance for either the receivers or Harris.
