Show Notes

Gus Malzahn will not say it, but his quarterback battle is down to two players: redshirt freshman Joey Gatewood and true freshman Bo Nix. Three Auburn quarterbacks had fantastic performances at the A-Day scrimmage Saturday, but our sources have long told us — and they repeated again — the quarterback battle is down to two men. Keith Niebuhr, Jason Caldwell and Brandon Marcello break down the performances of Nix and Gatewood, their improvement over the years since high school, and why they expect both quarterbacks to possibly play in the season opener Aug. 31 against Oregon. Yes, we're more than four months away, but the picture already appears to be clearing up. The guys also break down the resurgence of the Auburn offense, why it has returned to form under Malzahn's guidance and whether the impact performances by Seth Williams and Matthew Hill will carry over into the fall for the receivers. Also, what are the pieces most concerning to the guys? Is there a hole to fix on defense? Which two players surprised us the most? Our answers vary, and for good reason.

Listen to the newest episode of the Auburn Undercover podcast as we zero in on the completion of spring practices and give you a full breakdown of what occurred behind closed doors during the 15 days of drills, including the only open scrimmage of the spring, from our team of insiders.
