Auburn Names Frazier Starting QB for 2012 Season

The Auburn Tigers officially named their starting quarterback for the opening game against Clemson. Kiehl Frazier will take the snaps under center in the Chick-Fil-A kickoff game. The decision was announced by head coach Gene Chizik early Thursday.

"After a complete and thorough evaluation during spring practice and through the first three-plus weeks of camp, Kiehl Frazier has earned the starting job at quarterback," Chizik said.

Frazier did mostly Wildcat plays last year, and was 5 of 12 passing with two interceptions. He was third on the team in rushing with 327 yards and three touchdowns.

He is expected to be a pro-style QB in Scot Loeffler’s offense.
