Auburn starting quarterback job still undecided

“We don’t have a decision yet”.

“We’re at our best when we’re playing fast, when we’re getting rhythm and tempo”, Malzahn said. He has done a very good job. We want him to be on the field as much as possible. I think the biggest question is whether or not Auburn’s offense can manufacture enough points to get a road conference win. “We’ll make a call on that later in the week”.

“We will have a decision before game time tomorrow”, Malzahn said. “The slow screens that scan the formation, and also the flare screen, and the different ways that they try and get them the ball”.

“That is a possibility”.

“I really feel like Jeremy’s done a solid job”, Malzahn said. After upsetting then-No. 25 Missouri last month, Kentucky players believe this game can help define the program’s quest for respectability.

“I think because we had an off-week last week that it’s really not that hard”. That really tells you all you need to know about the direction and public thought about each team so far this season.

Thursday night games offer a wonderful opportunity for teams to showcase themselves in front of a national TV audience with little competition for viewers, but the games bring with them an inherent disruption to the normal operating procedure.

“Thursday night games away are challenging, there’s no doubt, because of the crowd and everything that goes with that”.

RUN DEFENSE: Both teams rank near the bottom in the SEC against the run, but last-place Auburn has struggled in particular under former Florida coach and first-year defensive coordinator Will Muschamp.

On speeding up the offense… Even if it’s not pretty, we can get 2-4 yards on most plays. We know what we got talent-wise and ability-wise. “He’s out for an extended period of time”.

The offensive line, which returned three players with at least one season of starting experience, has failed to provide its usual amount of push up front.

“I can’t remember the day you asked me but I’ve always been forthright with that”. Devonte Danzey is probably the first up. White took every snap in the next two. We have a few sufficient guys. “(Alex Kozan) has as well, but not as efficient as a few of the others”. Auburn will be treating it like a Friday and traveling to Kentucky for a game that might very well definite its season. “Just because we have talked about him for a year and a half doesn’t mean they are grown yet”. Our guys understand that we are playing a good team, a team that’s played three SEC games and won two of them.

“The only difference is it’s a little different for them when they get a few down time, there’s not much going on as far as TV”, Stoops said.
