AUBURN, Ala. - Danjel Purifoy’s ankle was fine. It’s his ears that were hurting.

“I yelled at him more that game than I have all year because I expect so much from him,” Auburn coach Bruce Pearl said. “And I know what he’s capable of, and make winning plays in many, many ways.”

Purifoy played 29 minutes Saturday in Auburn’s 84-64 win over Alabama, returning to the lineup after missing three games with an ankle injury suffered against Ole Miss two weeks earlier.

“It was very fun,” Purifoy said.
