08:24 AM ET 08.19 | Auburn made its QB choice Thursday, choosing to go with Barrett Trotter over Clint Moseley. Moseley struggled to make sense of the decision. After arriving at Auburn in 2009 as a hot-headed freshman, he learned to regulate his emotions and teammates say improved dramatically on the field. Moseley spoke earlier this week about the enormity of the starter's job at Auburn -- and that he was ready to take it. That opportunity will have to wait. "Biggest disappointment of my life. Period," Moseley said. "They just felt Barrett gave us the best chance of winning because of his experience." ... When asked if he was surprised by the coaches' decision, Moseley pondered his answer for a moment. "I shouldn't answer that," he said.

It was somewhat of a surprise because Moseley has the bigger contract.

You should see the youtube of it. It's like someone just shot his dog. I thought he would cry. I'm not making fun. I'm just observing that this was a lot more devastating than it comes across as in an article.

Frazier might be starting by game 6

Really hoping they redshirt him. He's a great kid and I think he'll do well at Aubie, but IMO he needs a year to adjust to the size/speed of the game.
