During my last 2 years at Auburn, I missed a total of 4 home games all during the Holiday Breaks. This is the one game I regret not traveling back to Auburn to see in person.
Connecticut came into this game road weary to say the least, as they played Arizona out in Tucson on Thursday night before a Saturday afternoon tip in Auburn. This was not a vintage UConn team and this was the last year the program was led by Kevin Ollie as the Huskies had fallen on hard times. Auburn didn’t make their stay on the Plains very welcoming from start to finish.
