North Carolina and Florida deemed Auburn's top competition for USF's Byrum Brown

The Auburn Tigers have been the presumed top landing spot for USF Bulls quarterback transfer Byrum Brown since he announced his intentions to enter the portal in a week. Saturday Blitz's Frank Sciarroni believes Jon Sumrall's Florida Gators and Bill Belichick's North Carolina Tar Heels are also potential options.

Sciarroni likes the fit of Brown with the Gators' new offensive coordinator, Buster Faulkner, who made the most of Haynes King, another dual-threat option. Ditto for new Tar Heels play-caller Bobby Petrino's offense and how Taylen Green looked on the Arkansas Razorbacks the past two years.
