I wish Auburn was ranked. I'm eager for us to get more resume-boosting wins. I know, Tuesday is a better opportunity.

A 9 point win pretty please to complete my guess of a combined margin of victory for the week of 57.

I prefer (& expect) a double digit margin of victory tomorrow. Baylor is that good.

I did not realize that Auburn's star freshman was the brother of Te'a Cooper!

Mizzou just tied it against TCU w/ less than 4 seconds to go.

TCU had been up by 12 just a few minutes ago.

Not another foul for Meyer!

Good grief we're in a lull right now. Need someone to get hot.

This is the first time our lack of size against a really big front line has come into play.
DanaDane

Mitchell in foul trouble. Ugh.

Flagler playing his balls off so far!

Between Butler, Teague and Mitchell, they're shooting 25%. One of them will heat up soon.

Man we have to lead the nation in "almost" layup or short bank shots that roll around the rim and don't go in.
DanaDane

Flagler carrying the offense on his back in the first half!

Did you know Auburn has the youngest team in the nation?

Chubby ref sure likes to blow his own whistle.

That's enough foul calls. Jesus.

It's not Higgins, but it's the no neck blond ref who's possibly worse than Higgins making all the calls from across the court.

Reviewing a foul call? Huh?

And ironically he blows it on a ticky tack foul just after being seen chatting with Pearl. haha

These refs are bull***** There was no foul there at all.
BUbackerinET

Yes. But we will overcome...
DanaDane

We're getting one shot at it due to their height advantage. Some of those have gotta start dropping. We're shooting 27% right now.
