University of South Alabama Athletics

Harris recorded a game- and career-high 14 total tackles while tying a school record forcing two fumbles — both recovered by the Jaguars — in South Alabama’s home opener against Mississippi State.  The senior’s first forced fumble came on a tackle for a loss of five yards on the Bulldogs’ first snap after taking over on the USA-31 following a turnover, keeping the score 7-0 late in the opening quarter, and the other stopped an MSU drive in the red zone five yards from the end zone.  It was the second time Harris has posted a double-digit tackle total, having first accomplished the feat in a victory over Kent State on Oct. 19 a year ago.
