Drew is a halftime genius. Forced auburn into a run and shoot game and neutralized their bigs.

Apparently only students vote in the song choice in the arena, because anyone old enough to remember would know that Starship's "We Built This City" was voted the worst song of the 1980s.

We're shooting at almost 60% in the 2nd half.

Turned on the jets in the 2nd half, just like we did against Illinois. Took their bigs right outta the game, just like we did Illinois.
