I couldn’t believe they didn’t put TJ in on the last drive, just March Bo out there to throw another pick.

Bo “skip passes” nix surely wasn’t getting it done. After the fumble I expected a change too.

Proud of how Bo had progressed, but a lot of the same old stuff.

Note to Bobo: The fade is not in Bo’s skill set.

The kid is a heck of an athlete but something just isnt right. I know our line sucks but he constantly bails when he doesn’t have to. He throws off his back foot way too much. He fires screen passes like they are 15 yard slants. I think he’s rattled mentally in certain game settings.

He still runs around like Ricky Bobby on fire when there is pressure of the edge when all he has to do is slide up in the pocket.

Excellent

(Except in the cases of deep bombs where they are 5-yds overthrown)

He skipped those to the goal line.

How much longer can we continue like this before we lose the team? And by we I mean Harsin.

I think everyone wants to like Nix, but he’s just not a competent QB. He’s an awesome athlete but he’s not competent at that position. He’s a lightweight Tebow.

I wouldn’t even call him a Great Value Tebow.

What move does Harsin have to make?

Finley has less upside than Bo, most likely. We need Holden to show up ready to play or to draw a high end transfer, and I doubt we'll get either of those things.

Yep, unfortunately this is the team we have to live with on offense. This is the same Bo we’ve seen for three years now. Great early, shaky mid-early, gets hot mid and late mid, shakiness towards end of season, maybe some late season magic against Bama. He just isn’t a sound QB, can’t make good reads and anticipate, must see someone open before throwing.

This is a great evaluation. He does not possess QB instincts. People only pay attention to the WR he targets and not the rest of the field. They criticize the WR for a drop or not being open when there is another option who is running free that Bo never saw.

I hope this is the last year of him for all our sakes. Next year will be much worse with us graduating 8 players on each side of the ball. But with Bo at QB, we won’t be able to develop wide receivers due to his overthrows and missle throws on 5 yard routes.

Great athlete, loves Auburn, plays with all his heart - but he is not a QB and does not make players around him better.

I don’t put it all on Bo. We have a lot of issues and have had them. WR’s struggle to be consistent and get open, OL is what we knew they would be. But ultimately Bo misses a lot. He does not see what the defense is doing and does not adjust accordingly.

Man some of you guys are unbelievable. Bo had a bad night and he’s super frustrating but we’d probably be 3-6 right now if not for Bo. Calm down

I don’t either.

We knew this at the start of the season. Bo knew this as well. But if he is an experienced leader - he is supposed to bring people along. Not play down to their level.

What part of what I said do you disagree with? It is a pretty accurate analysis of who he is as a QB and who we are as a team.

Maybe when bad Bo appears we just trot Finley out for a series. Bo straightens himself out on the sidelines and poof we get good Bo again. Maybe it would work.
