The Auburn Tigers had one of college football's biggest wins in Week 1, downing the Baylor Bears 38-24 in Waco in an early season-defining triumph. It wouldn't have been possible without quarterback Jackson Arnold having a Cam Newton-esque debut in Hugh Freeze, Derrick Nix, and Kent Austin's offense.
The Athletic's Sam Khan Jr. believes Arnold fits Freeze's offense "like a glove," and tabbed the Oklahoma Sooners transfer's stock as "up."
"Arnold’s Auburn debut was promising. He took good care of the football, which was an issue at times at Oklahoma, and took whatever Baylor’s defense gave him.
