Rece Davis encapsulates the Bo Nix experience with a carnival story

Rece Davis understands what many Auburn fans can relate to when he describes what’s become known as the “Bo Nix Experience.”

The College GameDay host outlined how the Auburn quarterback’s play is part magic, and part erratic.

“He’s been like a ride at a carnival,” Davis said on social media. “Not like a meticulously maintained Disney ride. He’s been like the traveling Tilt-a-Whirl where there’s a guy everyone calls Pops. He unloads all the pieces of the ride off a flat-bed truck and sets it up in a parking lot, and maybe he remembered to tighten all the screws. But the corndogs at the 7/11 smelled really good. So maybe he went over there and got distracted.”

Then Davis described how it feels to be on the ride and said there are unidentified noises, your vertabrae gets adjusted and there’s adrenaline and exhilaration and euphoria.

“You get off, and you’re like, ‘Man, why can’t every ride be like that,” Davis said. “Or maybe the safety bar flies off and you end up rear end over tea kettle out on the pavement. That’s sort of the Bo Nix experience and I absolutely love him for it.”

Davis said he loves Bo Nix, because he believes that it might go awful, but he believes the next play will go great.

When the Deep South’s oldest rivalry is renewed, hang on tight! @AuburnFootball @GeorgiaFootball https://t.co/dQFp3rT2uB pic.twitter.com/KdTTA4S9Jp

OK, it's a decent analogy, but I have one question: What were LSU fans doing hanging out at a 7/11 in the Shoals (where Rece grew up)? You know there had to be a lot of them if Pops could smell them all the way over at the fairgrounds.

Corn dogs at the 7/11? First off, he obviously had LSU on the brain. Second, the wafting corn dog aroma would be found at the carnival, not the convenience store across the street. Maybe roller grill Brats or something, but not corndogs. Third, I don't think the corn dogs would be frying when he's actually setting up the ride, only after the ride is set up and the carnival is going on. And who the heck is "Pops" in this simile? Pat Nix? Ghost of Malzahn? So many questions. Nice try, Rece.

I thought it was pretty good. Why dissect the details? 

Just laugh at the overall analogy, which was pretty good IMO.

Just my schtick. Serious sounding funny stuff. You got sucked in by my schtick. Welcome to my corner of the universe. A schticky situation. I walk softly and carry a big schtick. Well, slightly above average sized schtick.
