Yeah I watched MSU play them. But Bo has been great every week since week 1 against a team that had him hopelessly outgunned

Georgia or Georgia State? His impressive throwing stats are hard to keep up with.

Our qb has a 35 QBR right now. Shut up about Georgia State when that team would beat our team this year.

They actually aren’t. They are near the top of the leaderboard in the country this season and auburn all time

I suspect Bo's wouldn't be much better with our OL and SEC slate. Some of you have really short memories.

61% pass completion, only 3 picks and very few turnovers last year and he actually tried to complete passes to his receivers. Maybe you’re the one with amnesia.

Wouldn’t be much better, but would definitely be better. Besides the point, as it’s more about how those of us defending Bo last year kept reiterating how little he was to blame for our struggles, not that he was some all-world QB. Hopefully some of you can admit that as he clearly is showing this year he is an above average QB and we are very clearly worse off.

The guy can’t even pretend that Bo’s worst year his true freshman year (18 years old) at 63 QBR is even in the same ballpark as Ashford’s current 35 rating. Ashford has basically become Bo versus Georgia State back to back to back and Veritas is like “yeah, but do you remember that one time?” and Yell boy is like “I know I wanted Nix gone ASAP but don’t forget Jason Campbell got better his fourth year! 2026 gonna be legit!”

Bo is gone and the what if debate doesn’t matter, but if you take almost anybody and compare him to what we have now you are going to succeed. Jeremy Johnson would be better than what we have now. Maybe, just maybe, Gabe Gross was worse, but barely

Bo was largely the product of a bad OL. Considering the OL is even worse this year, I just don't see that our record would be any different with him this year.

Yeah I think we maybe would have run away with the Missouri game and flip the result of the LSU game. Still wouldn’t feel great about anything

I knew that as soon as Calzada came aboard. That’s besides the point. I mention the DJ Williams longTD run, someone mentions that an Auburn man is having another a great game, and then the insecure amongst us are like “bUt hOw DiD hE dO AgAiNst tHe nCaA CHaMpS?”

We both know that the implication is things would be so much better if Bo were still here. Touting his #s with an exponentially better OL and easier schedule is amusing but ultimately meaningless.

Bo never consistently touched the bottoms that our QBs keep touching against the Mercer’s, Missouri’s, San Jose, etc and he never was 3–3. What recent Auburn team has had QB play this pathetic?

Ashford left the same OL that Bo is working behind right now. Maybe it’s just Ashford? Btw pass block still seems to be improved from last year.

We both know Bo has never had a QBR deep down where Ashford’s sit.

There is no way we beat Ole Miss.

We do not have an offensive line that is even remotely competent to beat a team of Ole Miss current caliber.

I am telling you I have no idea how Tank chose to stay, and there was nothing Harsin or anyone could do to keep Bo Nix on the roster. He had his degree and he knew he would have no chance to showcase his ability behind our OL.

Bo Nix was leaving no matter what and he made the right choice. We will be losing a lot more moving forward. Everyone needs to be patient with the next coach because the cupboard will be bare for a while.

Had to be an NIL deal of a lifetime. Or he was promised offensive linemen were transferring in.

I think it’s pretty clear that we would be better with Bo than we have been with Finley and Ashford. But it’s hard to say just how much better based on the lack of other talent. Let’s leave it at that

Had to be something like that because there is no other explanation that makes sense.
