Harris has already scored running and passing the ball, so has our tight-end. LSU will use Fournette to pound it, then use him as a decoy. You'll see LF scoring TD's even when he doesn't touch the ball.
How many passing TD's does Harris have? Last I saw it was a grand total of 1. I mean do you even watch football? They are only giving him one side of the field with MAYBE 2 progressions when he is throwing anything past the line of scrimmage. And he isn't "seeing" it to clearly (ref: getting Jeter annihilated Saturday). I mean you ran roughshod over Auburn last week but they are a really really bad Defense right now. You can use MSU as an example but they had issues defending USM the week prior (hell they gave up over 300 yard passing to them....if Harris was any good why wouldn't Les turn him loose to practice against them?) Unless something drastically changes he isn't going to open things up for you.
As for the running option, a disciplined defense can and should bottle him up. He isn't exactly Cam Newton or LF7 you know. That being said you have a 1 dimensional offense primarily based off the RBs (who are all studs) and when you run into a good D it will be difficult to get sustained drives going.

You have absolutely no clue about LSU football and Les Miles.

No I don't understand his logic or lack there of at times. I mean the biggest issue last year, and so far this year, with MSU has been pass defense. They gave up 311 yards to USM....over 4 times as many yards passing as you put on them. We are talking USM not the likes of aTm or something. If Harris is this wonderful QB then why would he not use him against a team with an obvious weakness? Everyone wants to talk about luck this past weekend but if you throw that stone as an LSU fan (y'all are my 2nd favorite SEC team) you got to count yourself in the same basket. If Mullens hadn't been a nitwit at the end of that game you might have walked out with an L instead of a W.

Your whole team couldn't stop Tyrann Mathieu so what makes you think 9 dawgs in the box will stop Fournette?
I don't think Tyrann or any of UGA's defenders will be in the next UGA v LSU game. Nor do I recall Tyrann playing much running back in that game....but I had a few Maker's so I might be mistaken.
