Because Pearl wants him to be and we are shorthanded with Spencer and Lang not available.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Dunans with a great pass to LaRon Smith and he lays it in.  37-27

[WarTiger 3,901]

Dunans with a THREE.  40-27

[WarTiger 3,901]

Smith with a follow up shot and he's fouled.  shooting 2.  1st good.  2nd good.  42-27

[Barnacle 9,064]

Looking good! 

[WarTiger 3,901]

Dunans steal in the back court and he lays it in.  44-27.  Auburn contests the shot, ball on the floor and Auburn gets it and calls a timeout.   54.4 seconds to play in the half.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Johnson with a THREE  47-27

[WarTiger 3,901]

HALFTIME.  Auburn leads 47-27.  Great half by Auburn.

Wow

[AUcivE09 582]

AU with a big lead. From what I understand - now the challenge begins.

[looney 794]

We block a buzzer-beater attempt from Ole Miss... In our own offensive end! Don't see that every day!

[au302 2,669]

Great half! I also love how Pearl was able to rest Harper and Purifoy for a while. That should help with durability during the second half

[AUTigersfan89 256]

Man, we just put up a great half... Already with 9 assists

[douggwilliams 61]

This is better, but similar to first game (AU up by 8). Talking head says OM playing 8 only.  Run them out next half?

[WarTiger 3,901]

Let's keep it up in the 2nd half. 

[au75 75]

   one more half 

[AUBwins 10,070]

This halftime score looks familiar.  Basically the same as the last game.  I wish I could feel confident in it.  I like the attacking and loving the play of L Smith.

Also did we see both RJ and JH in the game at the same time?  I like it.  That might be good late in the game to kill clock.   Obviously you need to alternate to keep the point guard fresh, but I think that is a good combo

That's a good point but I'd argue we are better than that game

[WarTiger 3,901]

2nd half getting started.  Auburn gets opening possession.  

[NoALtiger 3,849]

Ok, no second half meltdown. Cmon boys!

[WarTiger 3,901]

Wiley inside  49-27
