Harkness’ returned his first interception 63 yards for a touchdown to give Morehead State a 14-0 lead. His second interception stopped Butler’s ensuing drive at the Morehead State six-yard line. He completed the trifecta with a pick in the opening moments of the second quarter.

He is the third FCS player to record three interceptions in a game this season and he also tied the MSU interception record.
