Auburn QB Commit Woody Barrett Totals 306 Yards, 3 TDs in Week 1

As the crown jewel of Auburn's 2016 recruiting class, 4-star quarterback and current Tigers pledge Woody Barrett couldn't have pictured a better start to his senior season at West Orange (Florida) High School. 

The 6'2", 225-pound Barrett amassed 308 yards of total offense and three total touchdowns in the Warriors' 45-0 season-opening win over Foundation, according to Christian Malone of the Orlando Sentinel.

Through the air, Barrett accounted for 178 yards and a pair of touchdown strikes to 3-star wide receiver Eddie McDoom. The nation's No. 6 dual-threat passer also carried the ball eight times for 128 yards, including a 15-yard touchdown run.

It was exactly the type of performance that highlights why Barrett projects as a perfect fit in the offense of Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn.

It's also a signal that he's getting more comfortable being the triggerman operating a high-octane, no-huddle attack.

As noted by Ryan Bartow of 247Sports, Barrett operates a system similar to what he will see on the Plains, and he has the physical tools to be a star at the next level.

He committed to Auburn in June over programs such as Alabama, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma and Texas.

Barrett was on the Auburn campus last month for a visit, and he told Keith Niebuhr of AuburnUndercover that he's solid in his commitment. In fact, his arrival could come a little earlier than expected.

"The road I'm going on, I will graduate in December," Barrett told Niebuhr. "It's really important to me. The quicker I can come here, learn the plays, learn the offense, the better chance I have on the field."

Before he heads off to college, he has a little unfinished business at the prep level.

If the first act of his senior season is any indication, Barrett is primed to have a monster year.
