Bo Nix more than holding his own in QB showdown with Matt Corral
Auburn fans seem to have something of a love-hate relationship with quarterback Bo Nix.
The junior signal caller, whose career has been defined by inconsistency, has drawn plenty of heat from Tigers fans at times this season.
But in the first half against No. 10 Ole Miss tonight, it has been all love for Nix
The 6-3, 214-pounder played a near perfect first half in propelling the No. 18 Tigers to a 28-17 halftime lead.
Nix competed 12-of-15 passes for 150 yards and a touchdown, while also adding 15 rushing yards and 2 TDs on the ground.
And Auburn fans have been appreciative of Nix’s efforts.
Here’s a look at some of the reaction to his 1st-half play on social media:
BO. NIX. FOCUSED. FUN.

Five weeks ago, Bo Nix got benched against Georgia State.
Tonight, he’s currently outdueling the QB that may be the Heisman front runner

I guess we’re just gonna let Bo Nix finally become what the media has wanted him to be, Superman on the football field.
