Bo Nix says the SEC officiating favors Alabama

Bo Nix said what a lot of Auburn fans have been saying for years.

The Auburn quarterback made his weekly appearance on “The Next Round” and was asked about Alabama’s performance against Arkansas last weekend and he pointed out that some controversial calls went Alabama’s way.

“Just a few of those obviously controversial calls that were in that game, it raises some questions, for sure, I guess, unless you’re an Alabama fan,” Nix said. “That’s just part of the game. We’ve discussed it over and over and over. That’s not going to change, no matter what happens. It was a good game, for sure.”

The hosts gave him a chance to clarify what he said and he doubled down.

“I think, legitimately, you watch the game and anybody who is unbiased would think something is different,” he said. “It is what it is. It’s kinda how it has always been. It’s part of the game. And they have good players. Can’t take that away from them.”
