It is crazy how successful Auburn has become in basketball. About ten years ago, if you asked someone who was the worst all-time SEC basketball program, they would have told you it was probably between Auburn, Georgia, and Ole Miss.

Bruce Pearl has built a very solid program practically from scratch.

Is that the building that burned during the Auburn-LSU football game?

Auburn has a realistic shot of making a deep run in the tourney, very impressed by them

It is amazing. I've followed AU basketball since the early 60s. it was never in worse shape than it was after the Barbee error. BP has won 200 games in 10 years at Auburn and made a ticket to Neville more expensive than one to Jordan-Hare for many games. Sounded like Nashville had a really strong AU crowd.

True. The students would count out a cadence, and he would march to the cadence as he pushed the broom. Neville is almost as rowdy as the Barn. You were right on top of the players in the Barn, and Auburn had a good basketball run under Joel Eaves, who later became the AD at UGA.

Wow, I could have sworn Auburn was 25-6 before Covid shut things down.

Hey Einstein, could it be that you are the one that is “pretty salty”?



Damn, you losers are providing an abundance of entertainment tonight.

For that, I am forever grateful.
