Episode Details

Heading into the Mercer game, buzz is building that the freshman phenom could see his first major action — or even get the start. Auburn’s offense has been searching for a true spark, and Knight’s arm talent and poise have turned heads inside the program all week.

This episode dives deep into why Auburn’s staff is seriously considering handing the keys to Deuce Knight now instead of waiting for 2025. Mike breaks down what Auburn’s offense could look like with Knight under center, how it changes the Iron Bowl prep, and why it’s bigger than just one game against Mercer.

The crew also looks at the timing. With John Cohen’s coaching search nearing its end, a young quarterback starting now could impact both Auburn’s short-term game plan and its long-term recruiting message. The combination of Knight’s energy and Cohen’s strategic vision could define Auburn football’s next chapter.
