Bryan Harsin comments on QB situation with Bo Nix, TJ Finley

Bryan Harsin has a big decision on his hands as Auburn prepares to play at LSU on Saturday night.

He has to decide between Bo Nix and TJ Finley at quarterback. Nix struggled and Finley played hero against Georgia State this past weekend.

During his Monday press conference, Harsin wasn’t ready to name a QB1, though. He said not to go solely based on the Tigers’ depth chart, which has Nix in the top spot still:

Bryan Harsin on QB1 vs. LSU: "That has not been decided yet. I know depth charts come out — depth charts are a little bit old school. So many things change during the week… We're going to get our QBs prepared today and tomorrow morning."

Harsin on QBs: We'll go into Tuesday and see how they operate. We need to find ways to put the ball in the end zone. We're moving the ball and kicking FGs. We're not consistent enough (scoring TDs). Both guys will be ready to go.#LSU

The Tigers will indeed need to score touchdowns instead of field goals if they’re going to pull off an upset at LSU.

The Nix/Finley decision will be something to keep an eye on all week as game day approaches.
