Stays in SEC West, picks Auburn Finley is transferring to Auburn.

Impact This is big news in the SEC West as the former LSU Tiger will now be wearing orange and blue. Finley, who will have four years of eligibility remaining, played in five games as a freshman at LSU and completed 57 percent of his passes for 941 yards with five touchdowns and five picks. He's unlikely to unseat Bo Nix as the starter even with a new coaching staff on The Plains but this is an addition that adds competitive depth to Auburn's quarterback room.
