It was also announced during Day’s presser that 10 of Harrison’s catches against Penn State went for a first down. He was a common target for quarterback Kyle McCord in crunch time, including Harrison’s touchdown catch that came on a 3rd-and-11 late in the game.

Saturday’s game for Harrison was also his 12th with at least 100 yards. After the game, Day could not say enough positive things about the superstar receiver.

He noted Harrison was targeted 16 times and was open on most of those opportunities. Day also said it’s hard to find someone across the country more special than his star player.
