 Deuce Knight’s performance versus Mercer has Auburn fans BUZZING heading into Iron Bowl week. The young quarterback looked every bit like the future of Auburn football, torching Mercer for 239 passing yards, two touchdowns through the air, and four rushing scores on 162 yards. From the moment his first play went 75 yards to the house, the energy around the Plains shifted — and it’s clear this isn’t your average freshman. In this episode of the Auburn Express, Mike Gittens and Caesar Walker break down what Knight’s breakout means for the Tigers’ quarterback depth chart heading into the Iron Bowl. Should Knight already be treated like QB2 behind Ashton Daniels? And if Auburn’s offense stalls, should he get a shot on the biggest stage of the season? The conversation also turns to Auburn’s biggest defensive concern: stopping Alabama’s Ty Simpson, who enters the Iron Bowl second in the SEC in passing. Can DJ Durkin’s secondary rebound after a shaky showing versus Mercer, or will the Tide’s aerial attack expose their biggest weakness? There’s a lot on the line for both sides — bowl eligibility, playoff implications, and maybe even Nick Saban’s future if the Penn State rumors are true. 🎯 Chapters 00:00 – Deuce Knight dominates Mercer 01:00 – Should Knight be QB2 for the Iron Bowl? 04:00 – Knight’s stats & dual-threat impact 08:00 – Auburn’s secondary concerns vs Ty Simpson 11:00 – Alabama game plan breakdown 15:00 – Can Auburn win a shootout? 20:00 – Final Iron Bowl predictions Learn more about your ad choices.
