If I told you Auburn had a 15 point lead, shots were dropping like crazy, and they were playing great defense during the first half, you'd think Auburn came away with a win, wouldn't you?
Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. In the second half, Auburn's shots stopped falling. Colorado really began taking advantage of their height, the refs seemed to call breathing wrong as a foul on Auburn, and Colorado took advantage of their trips to the free throw line while Auburn squandered theirs.
Auburn was playing well up until a technical foul on Horace Spencer for spiking the basketball after a dunk.
