At some point this year, Brandon Harris going to have to pass downfield. Because of Fournette and that defense, it might not happen much, but it'll happen. And we don't know if he'll pull it off.
Still, a 55% passing success rate -- 15% above the national average -- is a good sign, as is LSU's 43% success rate on passing downs (which was higher than Auburn's success rate on STANDARD downs). LSU did an excellent job of finishing off a wounded, vulnerable Auburn team before Auburn could even think about trying to win the game. It was over early.
