LSU wide receiver Jackson Harris has taken over the Tigers’ offense in his first season since transferring from Hawaii. After a slow start to the season, he emerged as a go-to target for quarterback Sam Leavitt following an injury to tight end Trey’Dez Green. Since then, he has not let go of his hold of the receiver room. He hauled in a career-high 11 catches for 166 yards in LSU’s 31-13 loss to Alabama and ranks No. 17 in the country and No. 2 in the Southeastern Conference with 800 receiving yards on 47 catches for seven touchdowns this season. Harris and the No. 24 Tigers (6-3, 3-3 SEC) put up plenty of yards (587) against Alabama, but will need to find the end zone more when they welcome No. 8 Texas (7-2, 4-2 SEC) to Tiger Stadium on Saturday (6:30 p.m., ABC).
Harris broke down what went wrong in the red zone against Alabama and how the Tigers are working to fix their issues finishing drives when he mat with Baton Rouge reporters on Tuesday.
