Auburn Basketball Opens Regular Season against North Florida

Auburn basketball will open up the 2016-17 season at home Friday against North Florida at 8:30 p.m. Central.

The Tigers took care of Montevallo in their exhibition game 96-68 with freshman Mustapha Heron leading the way with 26 points and 6 rebounds.

In total, Auburn started three freshman in their exhibition game, and I expect that will be the case against North Florida on Friday night.

The Ospreys are coming off a 22-12 campaign and a trip to the NIT where they lost to Florida 97-68. I expect they will once again be a factor in the ASUN Conference.
