Can Deuce Knight Keep Jackson Arnold Benched? | Auburn Football Podcast
Description
Auburn football fans, the quarterback room is heating up again—and this time it’s personal. Deuce Knight has a golden opportunity to take control of the Tigers’ offense, but what does that mean for Jackson Arnold? With Auburn’s matchup against Mercer looming, this might be the final audition before the transfer portal chaos begins.
In this episode, we dive deep into what the Auburn coaching staff’s QB plan might really look like. Will Deuce Knight be given a full game to build rhythm, or will Jackson Arnold get meaningful snaps to prove he still belongs in orange and blue?
The conversation covers every angle: game flow, coaching strategy under Derek Nix, and how Mercer’s FCS-level defense may or may not reveal the truth about Auburn’s offensive progress. We also discuss whether Jackson Arnold could hit the transfer portal depending on how this weekend unfolds—and if Auburn can afford to lose another experienced quarterback with the 2025 season around the corner.
You’ll also hear about the future of Auburn’s QB depth chart, how Ashton Daniels factors into the mix, and what fans should watch for in this critical game.
This isn’t just a Mercer preview. It’s a moment of truth for Auburn’s future under center.
