“The most physical game I’ve seen all year,” ESPN analyst Jay Bilas said.
Welcome to Tennessee basketball, Auburn. And welcome to the jungle, Tennessee.
No. 1 Auburn hosted No. 6 Tennessee on Saturday night in a top ten showdown and a big one for the SEC standings. It marked the return of Johni Broome for the Tigers, and a chance for Tennessee to remind everyone why they spend several weeks at the top spot in the polls.
What did we get? A rock fight, naturally. An even game ended up with a 22-20 score at the halftime break, with just one three pointer made by either side.
