WATCH: Auburn quarterback Bo Nix takes shot at SEC officials, Alabama

Auburn quarterback Bo Nix just took a serious shot at SEC officiating. Following Saturday’s SEC matchup between Alabama and Arkansas, Nix insinuated that officials were favoring Alabama in the game. Nix said that there were some questionable calls during the game that went in Alabama’s favor, raising questions about bias in officiating.

“Just a few of those obviously controversial calls that were in that game raises some questions for sure,” Nix said of SEC officiating after Saturday’s game between Alabama and Arkansas. “I guess unless you’re an Alabama fan. But that’s just part of the game. We’ve discussed it over and over and over. That’s not gonna change no matter what happens.”

“I think legitimately you can watch the game and anybody unbiased will think that something is different,” Nix said when asked if SEC officiating favors Alabama. “It is what it is. It’s kind of how it’s always been. But that’s part of the game. But they have good players. You can’t take that away from them.”

Nix’s shot at the SEC comes a week after a season-ending injury

Unfortunately for Nix, his season is done after he suffered a season-ending broken ankle in Auburn’s game against Mississippi State. He will miss the final two games of the regular season.

After his injury, Nix tweeted a message, saying that he’s ready to begin his road to recover.

“Bones break and things change, but God is always the same,” Nix said in a tweet on Sunday. “One of my favorite verses is John 13:7, “Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I’m doing, but later you will understand”. The Lord’s timing is our schedule. The road to recovery begins tomorrow.”

This season was Nix’s third at Auburn. Prior to his injury this year, he had completed 61 percent of his passes for 2,294 yards, 11 touchdowns and three interceptions along with 168 rushing yards and four scores on the ground. In his collegiate career, he has thrown for 7,251 yards, 39 touchdowns and 16 interceptions. He also has 869 rushing yards with 18 scores on the ground.

While Nix and Auburn have been inconsistent this season, the Tigers are bowl eligible with a 6-5 record, including a 3-4 mark in the SEC. Auburn takes on Alabama to wrap up the regular season on Saturday.

Kickoff for Saturday’s game between Alabama and Auburn is set for 3:30 p.m. ET. Nix’s comments about SEC officials favoring the Crimson Tide will add some intrigue to the regular season finale.
