Harris caught seven passes for 102 yards and a touchdown against LSU. However, he was in street clothes late in the game after getting banged up.

Harris left the game after running a vertical route, signaling to his sideline that he needed a reprieve. Then he was not in the game for Ole Miss’ final offensive drives in regulation, apparently in the injury tent.

Ahead of the LSU game, he was dealing with an injury but was upgraded to probable before the matchup with the Tigers.

Lane Kiffin reveals his approach to preparing for new Oklahoma offensive coordinator

Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin faced a unique challenge as he prepared for Oklahoma this week. The Sooners made a change at offensive coordinator, calling into question what the offense could look like for Oklahoma.

When asked about the change and how it might change his approach to preparing for the game, Kiffin explained that it’s impossible to predict how the move will change the offense. So, it’s not practical to change his approach.

“There’s no way to predict that,” Lane Kiffin said. “Usually they don’t change a whole lot when someone’s been there, and was the co-coordinator already. Even if there is, you can’t figure it out. There’s no magic formula to figure out what they’re thinking.”

After Jeff Lebby took the Mississippi State job, Oklahoma head coach Brent Venables hired Seth Littrell to replace him. However, as the team has struggled offensively, particularly in SEC play, Venables made the decision to make another change at coordinator. Now, tight ends coach and co-offensive coordinator Joe Jon Finley is going to be calling the plays.

Notably, Finley was on Kiffin’s staff at Ole Miss for one season, where he was an offensive assistant. He also spent multiple seasons on Lebby’s staff at Oklahoma.

“It’s not like Joe Jon was our coordinator here,” Kiffin said. “He was the tight end coach. He’s never called plays. So, it’s not like there’s any film to go watch when he called plays.”
