On3's @jdpickell sees the Auburn QB race as critical for Bryan Harsin in year 2:

“This is a big deal for Bryan Harsin, Because they’re not giving him a really long leash. It’s unfortunate, I don’t love it but that’s the world we’re living in”

The starting quarterback job for Auburn is TJ Finley's to lose according to @colecubelic.

But that's not where his thoughts on the Auburn quarterback race end.
