RECAP: Auburn can't overcome Mississippi State, falls 79-66

Mississippi State just kept hitting threes, and Auburn couldn't complete a comeback. The Tigers will face Tennessee in the SEC Tourney on Wednesday night.

Sigh...stop me if you've heard this one before:

Auburn starts out strong in the first half, watches a lead slip away, and can't put a complete game together to make the comeback.

Yep.

It's not fun to watch, and I take no joy in recounting it, but it happened again today. A game that started with two TJ Lang threes and an 8-0 Auburn run ended with a 39-20 first half for Mississippi State and eventually a Bulldog victory to the tune of 79-66.
