Wishing Bo the absolute best! I met his dad our very first class at Auburn (he sat in front of me in a math class).. He was a great guy and a great QB at Auburn! It’s been exciting to see his son succeed at Oregon!

[@samjett6999]

His first career start against Justin Herbert and the ducks in 2019 was an awesome game and to see how far he’s come us Oregon fans couldn’t have been luckier having bo someone asked him about the heisman he said because he has a heisman team he always talks about his teammates rather then himself

[@devonpaulson1014]

I'm very proud of this kid considering I'm a Oregon ducks fans. His story is awesome and inspiring.

[@edwynncr17]

I went to that game in Arlington in 2019 to watch Oregon play since I’m a fan and they finally came to play in Texas since the loss in 2014 to Ohio State. I remember hearing about how Bo was a freshman qb so I was confident Oregon would win that game. I felt so heartbroken when it came down to the final play of the game and Auburn won. It’s crazy to think 4 yrs later, he’s on our sideline now and every weekend I watch Oregon play, I slowly start to heal that broken heart from that night in Arlington. Go Bo! 🫡

[@TheShaund]

[@jojowaterloo]

This kid has that it factor and mature beyond any QB in college ball and I think if he gets drafted to the right situation, he will have a great NFL career. But for now, lets focus on finishing the job, win out and get that Natty.

[@Mikevdog]

Too bad he missed out on the New Mexico State game and the last 2 years of booing and poor blocking and receivers.

Don’t sit this guy anymore. JD is now favored to win the Heisman because he is a stat padder.

Ok explain why jayden daniels numbers are far better in sec than they ever were in pac 12?😂

[@jimmyhuynh6049]

I dislike Bo NIx only cuz he beat Bama in the Iron Bowl on a trick that cost Bama a penalty.

[@sunspots6077]

The title says it all.. he washed out of the SEC and went to a BS conference where half of the starting DBs would be third stringers in the SEC. Jayden Daniels moved up in class going to the SEC you simply can not even compare Nix to JD

[@devotearchetype]

Is that why Oregon defense is better than Bama defense stat wise??? 🤔

[@lestercombs1871]

He got entirely too much acne.

[@827dusty]

When does the Michael Penix Jr. story air? Is this all because of Phil Knight's Niki ties to Espn? Nothing against Bo Nix, the other "nix" Pe-nix, is probably wondering when he gets his puff-piece done. I think there is some tampering going on here. The fix is in, as they say.

[@justineebourgeois3420]

@@AK-sq1jl lmao. Oregon and Nix have improved a ton since then. Also, no one is playing "teams like that" on a weekly basis in the SEC. Last year's Georgia squad was one of the best teams in CFB EVER. I swear, SEC honks love to act like everyone in that conference is Georgia when in fact the conference has always been top heavy.

Jalen Hurts esque story 😎

[@AK-sq1jl]

Not at all. Jalen Hurts played very well in the SEC and at Alabama. He transferred because there was another phenom that took his place. Bo Nix transferred because he can't handle SEC defenses and now he plays weak competition in the SEC and gets praised for it. Oregon is a 2 or 3 loss team in the SEC.

[@AK-sq1jl]

Eh he had to run away from the SEC to be good. Im not that impressed.
