There was some dubious history coming into this game against Florida for Auburn. Auburn had not defeated Florida in the regular season since 2000 and at all since the 2009 SEC Tournament in Tampa, a span of 11 games. For Auburn, it was a chance to make some history and get back over .500 in SEC play.
Samir Doughty would make a huge impact on both sides of the floor in this contest and started the Tigers off right with a 3-pointer on the 2nd possession of the evening.
Bryce Brown would get his night started well knocking down his first 3 of the night on the next possession which was followed by an incredible 3-point play converted by J’Von McCormick.
