Gus Malzahn planning to hand over play-calling duties to OC Lashlee?
Offensive change might be in the works for Auburn’s game against No. 18 LSU, according to a tweet from former Auburn offensive coordinator Jack Crowe.
War Damn change! Gus relinquishing play calling 2 OC TODAY/Desperation. Assistant Coaches not pawns!! Scapegoating is failure of leadership

Crowe claims Auburn coach Gus Malzahn is letting offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee call the plays for the SEC West showdown on the Plains. According to a report from 247Sports.com, Malzahn made the same change for Auburn’s win against Texas A&M in 2015.
We’ll see if his claim is true when Auburn and LSU square off at 6 p.m. ET on ESPN.
