So we fast forward two weeks from the last Auburn win as the Tigers came into this one on a 3 game losing and had dropped to 2-4 in the SEC. The first game, was a heartbreaking 82-80 loss to Kentucky in one of the best basketball environments I’ve ever been a part of. Yes, we lost that game but the energy in the building, capped off with the Auburn Arena debut of Dickie V makes it one of my fondest Jungle memories, despite losing that game.
Then Auburn goes to South Carolina, which has become a recent house of horrors, and loses 80-77 on a controversial no-call as Auburn looked to tie that game in the closing seconds.
