Saturday Quickies: Beat Auburn Edition

The Kentucky Wildcats are all set to take on the red hot Auburn Tigers today in the Elite Eight for a chance to face the Virginia Cavaliers in Minneapolis.

While the Cats have played two nail-biters in a row, the Tigers have been bludgeoning their way through the Sweet 16. They beat the Kansas Jayhawks 89-75 and they followed that up by crushing the North Carolina Tar Heels 97-80.

Their shooting lights out but they did lose one of their few quality big men for the remainder of the tournament.
