It’s not a big deal. It’s just a common troll.

And it’d be like if Jalen Milroe transferred to Ohio State and became a Heisman Finalist.

They screamed for Hurts to get benched all season in 2017 like they did for Milroe these past two years.

Nix left Auburn because it was a trash program with a trash coach and trash fans.

Pretty fitting that the most famous play by a former Auburn player in a Super Bowl is this one:

Hurts was absolute trash at alabama.

You are not supposed to drink the bong water. Hurts was a very good quarterback at Bama. In the NC game against Clemson, the last time Jalen Hurts left the field, he had the lead. The defense let them down at the end, not Jalen. Georgia was very well prepared for Bama in the NC game and were ready for every play. When he was replaced, Jalen could have gotten mad and left. He did not. Put his team first and stayed. Kept working and when Georgia was ready for everything Tua had in the SEC Championship game, Jalen stepped in and got the win.

I think it is a little bit different in that Rattler left OU with bitter feelings. Hurts apparently left Bama in a much more amicable fashion.

Dillon Gabriel is a way better comparison for an outgoing Oklahoma QB in a comparison with Hurts in regards to the relationship with the program that they departed from.

I remember Hurts putting out a video of himself smoking a cigar in '19 after Bama beat Tennessee. He had QB'd OU to a win over WVU that same day.

In retrospect, OU fans won't claim Rattler despite the fact that he won a Big XII title... mostly because he won't claim OU.

Hurts won a national title and also came in to win a conference title for Alabama.

Nix did neither of these at Auburn.

Hurts wears Alabama shirts and attire all the time during interviews, showcasing a love of the program that gave him his big chance.

A fairly thorough search for Bo Nix and I can't find any evidence of him wearing Auburn apparel since he left.


Interestingly enough, when you search for Jalen Hurts college in Google, you get this:



When you search for Bo Nix college, you get this:





I'll let you decide if that's because no one thinks of Auburn for Bo Nix, or if Auburn is so irrelevant that Google simply disregards your existence.

Hurts quarterbacked Alabama to the national championship game two years in a row and came off the bench to win the SEC Championship Game in another. Did Bo Nix do that?
