AUBURN, Ala. -- It's February, which means it's the time of year where every team in college basketball is fighting for something. No. 8 Auburn (21-2, 9-1) has a two-game lead in the SEC and is fighting to win a conference championship. The Tigers are also fighting for a better seed come March.

Texas A&M, Auburn's opponent Wednesday night, is in a six-way tie for eighth in the conference and five games out of first, but the Aggies have won two in a row and are still fighting for a spot in the NCAA Tournament.
