AUBURN, Ala. — Auburn Coach Pat Dye today picked redshirt freshman Stan White as the Tigers’ starting quarterback for the Sept. 8 season opener at home against Cal State Fullerton.
The 6-foot-2, 194-pound White from Birmingham cinched the nod over fifth-year senior Frank McIntosh and redshirt sophomore Corey Lewis with a strong showing in Wednesday night’s game-type scrimmage, Dye said. White threw for two touchdowns.
In third-ranked Auburn’s two scrimmages this month, he hit 28 of 42 passes (66%) for 340 yards and three touchdowns.
