Deuce Knight’s Breakout Game & Auburn’s QB Plan for the Iron Bowl 2025 | Auburn Football Podcast
Description
Auburn fans — it’s Iron Bowl Week, and this one feels different. In this edition of “Walker Wednesdays”, we dive deep into Auburn’s quarterback situation and the momentum shift following Deuce Knight’s electric first start.
After tossing six touchdowns against Mercer, the true freshman showed flashes of why he was one of the most highly rated recruits in the 2024 class. His mobility, pocket presence, and confidence drew immediate attention. But with Ashton Daniels also delivering a strong performance versus Vanderbilt, the question remains: who should start in the Iron Bowl against Alabama?
Mike breaks down Auburn’s options, why Derek Nix’s play calling has transformed this offense, and what the Tigers need to do defensively to contain Alabama’s Ty Simpson — a quarterback boasting 22 touchdowns and only 4 interceptions on the season.
Auburn’s defense must rediscover its early-season form and shut down Alabama’s explosive passing attack. If they can pressure Simpson and limit big plays, Jordan-Hare could witness another Iron Bowl miracle under the lights.
From offensive adjustments to breakout skill players like Perry Thompson, Jeremiah Cobb, and Malcolm Simmons, this episode breaks down every key storyline heading into one of college football’s greatest rivalries.
