Oklahoma State quarterback Spencer Sanders shocked the college football world when he opted to enter the transfer portal. It now appears that he is earning interest from some of the top schools in the nation.

Spencer Sanders has been linked to both Auburn and Ole Miss according to Chris Hummer of 247Sports.

Auburn and Ole Miss could both be viable options for the former Oklahoma State QB1.

Ole Miss, led by Jaxson Dart, finished the 2022 campaign with an 8-4 record. The Lane Kiffin-led offense is one of the most explosive in the country, and Sanders could be the perfect fit.

Auburn has firmly put themselves into the quarterback conversation as they have been linked to several quarterbacks currently in the portal. They struggled at times last season, ultimately finishing with a 5-7 record.
