Ti'a Shines in A-Day Game

Auburns Redshirt Freshman QB, Tristan Tia, Steals the Show at A-Day Game

In a surprising turn of events, Auburns backup quarterback, Tristan Tia, from Oregon State, outshone new transfer Byrum Brown in the A-Day game. Tia, a redshirt freshman, led the second-team offense on an impressive eighty-three-yard touchdown drive, completing four of five passes, including a twenty-eight-yard score to Duke Smith. He finished the day with fifteen completions out of twenty, one hundred seventy-nine yards, one touchdown pass, one interception, and a rushing touchdown.

Coach Alex Golesh praised Tias performance, highlighting his intelligence, clean ball, and pinpoint accuracy. Golesh also noted Tias speed on the ground and expressed excitement about his potential, given that he only played five games last season.

Tia attributed his success to Auburns staff, who recruited him hard in the transfer portal and delivered on every promise during his visit. He credited the intentional coaching, daily routines, and game plans for his confidence and trust in the process.

With the starter spot currently locked, Tia is poised to compete for the job in the future, alongside other young quarterbacks like Locklan Hewlett and Rhys Brush. Auburns quarterback room is looking deep and promising for the future.
