Chad Morris' debut at Auburn going about as well as expected by Arkansas fans
While Auburn fans were excited to see the debut of the Chad Morris offense on The Plains, Arkansas fans tried to warn them about what was coming.
After his first quarter calling plays for the Tigers, Morris has already left a lot to be desired against Kentucky’s defense.
Auburn had only 7 first downs in the first half and are 1 for 4 on third down conversions.
In the most expected move of opening weekend, Auburn fans booed the end of the first offensive possession as the Tigers did not go for it on 4th and short, electing to quick punt, instead.
Bo Nix is 6 for 11 passing for 90 yards.
At least Auburn leads, 8-7 at the break. Although much of that lead has to do with a controversial call just before halftime.
After taking that first-half performance in, Arkansas fans and media were quick to share their reactions to the expected results:

Did you catch Rodgers saying, "Chad Morris needs to do a better job designing plays to give Bo Nix options?"
