Though most of the time in spring games you don’t see much of anything interesting, today in Jordan-Hare Stadium, fans got to see first hand the battle raging in the Auburn quarterback room.
Joey Gatewood and Bo Nix alternated first team reps in the first half, and the two dueled it out all afternoon long. Gatewood opened the game as the first quarterback to see the field, but after an Eli Stove wheel route to get the ball past midfield, the drive stalled.
Malik Willis, thought to be a definitive third in the race at this point, started the game with the second team, and went perfect on the second drive.
