What frustrated Auburn fans was Bo was “Jekyll & Hyde”. So much so, he was known as “Road game Bo”. He showed flashes of greatness, but then crapped the bed with Away games. UGA, South Carolina, and UF come to mind off the top of my head.

It’s hard to judge if it was the chicken or the egg. He’s in a conference that has weaker defenses now, which tend to run up scores.

Heck, you’re a Bulldog, when he faced y’all, he looked like “Old Bo Nix”. I’m still happy for him though, without his whining, he’s a good guy.

When he faced us, he was an outstanding QB with no help and no coaching. And auburn fans, like yourself, that blamed the best player on the team when he was the only thing keeping you remotely competitive.

Nix was the only thing that worried me about Auburn when he was on your team. We were good enough to scheme him right out of the offense, because Auburn had nothing else.

So it wasn't "Old Bo Nix". It was the "Same Old Auburn" that - for the first time since Newton - had an elite QB and didn't know what to do with him.
