Honors & awards
- 2022 - named to All-Big 12 First Team by the league’s coaches and AP
- 2022 - named to Outland Trophy Watchlist
- Started all 12 regular season games on the offensive line … started the season opener vs. UTEP (9/3) at right tackle and remaining 11 games at left tackle.
- 2020 allowed one sack on 173 pass-blocking plays according to PFF ... listed first on the depth chart heading into the season-opening game.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Ideal size and length combination comes from a long line of pro bowl Oklahoma offensive tackles
- Consistently keeps his feet sliding while maintaining power when dealing with speed, often sending speed rushers flying past the pocket
- Very good speed to mirror pass rushers on the edge - demonstrated by him surrendering just 4 sacks in three years of college ball
- Takes much pride in the run game, where Harrison plays through the whistle with excellent physicality
- Has the natural power to move defenders at the point of attack. Harrison also has the agility and speed to get out in front and land blocks at the second level. He also shows a good understanding of angles when climbing to the second level.
- Is one of the best pass protectors in the nation and has consistently played at this level throughout his college career
- Plays with natural leverage and has the strength to anchor against the bull rush. Harrison also packs a violent initial punch that can stand up pass rushers.
- In pass protection, he flashes a strong initial punch and typically has good hand placement along with elite overall hand and arm strength
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Needs to prove his worth in a straight-ahead running game.
- Better protecting on the edge gives up too much on the inside
- Has enough power in the run game, but at times Harrison seems to lack a mean streak
- Plays a little too upright at times - leading to him being knocked off balance
- Tends to slip off blocks when going against bigger linemen, and we've seen him finishes plays on the ground.
- Harrison can also look a bit hesitant when it comes to recognizing and reacting to twists, stunts, and blitzes up front.
Scouting Report: Summary
Anton Harrison is an impressive athletic left tackle prospect who has displayed excellent pass-protection skills over the past three years as a Sooner. We currently rate him as the number two ranked pass protector in the draft (after Peter Skoronski), he, however, is less accomplished as a run blocker where his strength and power don't always show through in his play.He'll be much in demand come NFL Draft day and we expect his skills to translate well at the next level where in all likelihood will become a starting left tackle in his rookie year in the pro game. He has first-round talent and deserves to be selected on day one.
