Sure, running back Leonard Fournette had established himself as one of the game's brightest stars, and the new-look defense led by coordinator Kevin Steele didn't suffer much of a drop-off from the John Davis days.
But the passing game was still a major question mark.
Brandon Harris entered action on Saturday with just 10 passes of 20 or more yards on the season—tied for the fewest among qualifying quarterbacks, according to CFBStats.com. He was averaging just 122 yards per game—which was last in the SEC among quarterbacks who have started every game this season.
He's no longer a question mark.
