Just a week out of its season opener, Auburn now has a starting quarterback.
ESPN’s Chris Low reports the Tigers will name T.J. Finley the starter for the season, beginning with Saturday’s game against Mercer. The announcement is expected to come within the next day.
Finley replaces Bo Nix, who started 10 games for the Tigers last season but transferred to Oregon in the offseason. He began his college career at LSU in 2020, where he started five games. He then transferred to Auburn in 2021, and played in nine games for them last season.
