You’re right on the money. Bo playing for bama or uga would prob be a heisman candidate in all honesty. With the protection, coaching and wide outs playing for keeps i don’t see him not. It really is a shame we can’t get things together more to take advantage of his skill set.

People shite on me for saying I quit watching auburn the past cpl years on here before the season but I just quit caring about it because auburn was in a never ending cycle of mediocrity. I didn’t watch any football because if auburn isn’t in the mix I simply don’t care. I was always pulling for them. But I can’t stand watching us squander our chances away due to bad coaching. I was all aboard the Gus bus for the first 4 years until I finally realized Arkansas was his Super Bowl and we shouldn’t be dating the FUF (fat ugly friend for you old timers) of the SEC. We are Auburn. Arky should be an afterthought for us. It’s like a gigachad swiping right on whales in tinder. We’re better and should hold everyone to that standard in coaching. When they’re coaching to beat arky like it’s the biggest game they lose my support.

What a clown-show comment.

First of all, a QB as inaccurate and inconsistent as Bo Nix would NOT be starting for either of those two teams.

But to play your game, you understand that those Bama and UGA receivers look good in part because their QB's throw accurate passes, correct? It's a two-way street. That white receiver from Georgia that burned us did so on passes that were perfectly thrown by the QB (the first was underthrown a bit, but it was still an easy catch). Bo Nix spent ~2 seasons overthrowing Anthony Schwartz, and this season he has still been wildly inconsistent throwing the ball downfield (he had Javarius Johnson open by as much as that white WR was in one game...and overthrew him by ~5 yards).

You talk as if Bo Nix throws perfect passes, but it's just our darn poor receivers around him that can't make plays for him! Or that Bo Nix always sees the correct read and throws to the open receiver. Or that he always steps into the pocket perfectly and allows the routes on the field to develop.

Yeah he got fricked by Malzahn and the offense around him this year is subpar, but open your fricking eyes: he is as incompetent in a lot of ways as the players around him. The fact that you described him as a Heisman talent playing beside incompetence that just makes him look bad suggests that you have no idea what you're watching on the field.

I don't get this take at all. Would Bo be better with better talent around? Yes...but he would still be Bo. He would still be inaccurate. He would still miss wide open guys. He would still bail a clean pocket.

To act like any of those other pieces is going to make Bo into Mac Jones just isn't the case. Mac was successful at Bama because he had talent around him, but he also was one of the most accurate QBs I have ever seen play.
