Starting QB still undecided

Amid the finger-pointing calamity in Auburn yesterday was also an update on the starting quarterback situation – there isn’t one yet.

The starting quarterback position is still open for the taking at Auburn as Kiehl Frazier and Clint Moseley each vie for the role in Saturday’s game with Ole Miss.

“We’ll go through it, and we’ll look at it starting (Tuesday),” Auburn coach Gene Chizik said Tuesday morning. “We’ll make a decision later in the week.”

Chizik say he doesn’t expect the choice between Frazier, who went 9-for-14 for 118 yards and an interception before being pulled at halftime Saturday and Moseley, who went 13-for-21 for 163 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions, to be a game-time decision.

“I think it’s (based) a lot on what is the comfort level is with the game plan that we’re implementing and the comfort level with how they’re executing that and what they’re doing in that regard,” he said. “Some of it is going to be with just performance Tuesday and (today), how they’re picking up the game plan, things of that nature.”

Frazier, who has started all five games for Auburn (1-4, 0-3 SEC) this season and is 56-for-103 for 664 yards with just two touchdowns and eight interceptions. His quarterback rating (99.4) is ranked 118th of 122 qualified players according to Elias Sports Bureau.

Offensive coordinator Scot Loeffler said Frazier and Moseley, who were each sacked four times against Arkansas, had an equal number of reps with the first team during Tuesday’s practice. Loeffler reiterated Chizik’s remarks that the starter would be decided during the week and is not a game-time decision.
