BO NIX REVEALS HOW HE’S A BETTER, MORE CONFIDENT QUARTERBACK IN HIS FINAL FALL CAMP – “I’m kind of relaxed and calm back there, it’s a good feeling doing it for this long”

When it comes to college football, having experience can easily be the difference between success and failure.

Even winning and losing!

Oregon quarterback Bo Nix is in the midst of his fifth fall camp in the college football ranks and is admittedly a different player than he was at Auburn.

And rightly so.

It stands to reason that if you spend as much time behind center and take as many offensive snaps as Nix has, success should follow.

“Going about practice is much different” explained Nix on Monday when asked about his process over the last five years.

“I’ve grown from different mistakes. I think just the overall processing a defense is just different. Much more familiar with like, I guess the nuances of playing the position,…like movements,…cadence and all that kind of stuff that you just kinda done a lot of in the past and so you’re kind of used to it.

I feel kind of relaxed and calm back there. It’s a good feeling doing it for this long,…I guess you better feel that way.”

The biggest difference say’s Nix is his ability to process at a higher speed and simply being more confident in his ability to select the right read.

“I’d say the defenses you still try to recognize,..and still try to process” explains Nix.

“At the same time, movements and a lot of pre-snap thinking just to get the play executed. Each offense I’ve been in had different things whether it be shifts and motions, movements,…double plays,…where to go on a certain singular play so there’s just a lot of thinking.

I don’t feel like I’m necessarily processing the same stuff. When I was a freshman I was processing every play,…there was a lot of stuff you had never seen before. Now thank goodness I’ve seen a lot of it and able to react.”
