Auburn's Brown on Manning Watchlist | Auburn Tigers Football News

Auburn’s Byrum Brown is heating up the preseason Manning Award watchlist—his explosive 2023 campaign at South Florida (3,000+ yards, 28 TDs) has him among 40 elite QBs. It’s been years since an Auburn QB made this list (last was Bo Nix in 2021), and with SEC heavyweights like Arch Manning and Gunner Stockton also competing, Brown’s climb is no small feat. The final watchlist update is Nov. 5, with the winner announced after the national title game. Brown and the Tigers kick off their season against Baylor on Sept. 5 in Atlanta—watch this space.
