Next round would have been Iowa St. easier game than this one. That hurts even more. 

Yah, we are Elite 8 if not for this s***

[Dual-Threat Rigby 8,662]

I think Wendell will get better with another offseason of practice, but there's no way one of the two incoming point guards can't start for us. 

[TexasTiger 12,835]

What a frustrating way to end the year.

[AuburnEagle79 2,165]

Has Flannigan made a layup tonight? 

[NoALtiger 3,850]

Ha Flanigan misses from point blank. Good thing he’s coming back.

Man. Well good season. We need that alpha guard though

Too much speed

Miami is athletic and they are hot . Every time AU made a shot , they answered. AU can’t hit a damn layup 

[Randman5000 4,226]

Dunk the damn ball!

Bruce got outcoached bad this game. He waited until the lead was way too big before he called a timeout.

Left the hot shooting Jaylin on the bench most of the game. Just bad, bad, bad.

He does that s*** every time. And he got out coached all season long honestly.

Better to lose now by 10 instead of 30 in the next rounds I guess

Honestly was more concerned over this scrappy Miami team than some of the others in the bracket. I wanted USC. Just a unique style that is a perfect deterrent to us.  Senior guard play.   We needed a couple of wins to get a roll going.  

[AUTigergrad08 617]

Another missed shot right at the basket.  This is the story of the game. Just flat out terrible.  

[tigers23 648]

I don't understand why anybody is surprised.  This is who we've been for 2 months. No discipline and Bruce does nothing to stop it

[JuscAUse! 1,404]

I've never been negative about Bruce or our team. But ffs we are taller and we actually have an advantage driving to the basket. So we throw up contested threes. But nevermind, we can't hit three footers either. Geesh.

I agree. Jaylin was the only one with a pulse on offense in the first half. How he wasn’t in sooner in the second half or even starts the second half blows my mind. And how many shots have we missed RIGHT UNDER THE FREAKING GOAL??!!!

[Tigger1985 806]

Going home early as we have been a hit or miss team all year. WDE

[ArgoEagle 1,775]

Bruce better get us some 3 point shooting on the off season.  You not gonna win. Our shooting has sucked for the last 2 months of the season.

[Maverick.AU 13,279]

We still can't hit an easy shot sheesh

[Eagle-1 3,821]

LOL, announcers saying unbelievable because Flanigan missed a shot underneath the basket. He hasn't watched us play much I guess.

He's only been cold for about 5 months now. "He will come around."

[Deutschetiger 41]

This team has been trash since the Arkansas game. Bruce Pearl is a mediocre coach who can recruit.

Yeah, guard play is just too crucial come March. Without it it's impossible to make a run.

I don't know about that. They have a couple of good shooters. Guard play wins the tournament. It's going to be a good game. 

[Randman5000 4,226]

Someone just freaking dunk it. Soft as hell

My gosh Kessler is playing scared. Jump up and gorilla dunk that ball and DARE anybody to stop you son!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the 2 quick fouls early in the game. It takes him out of his game. Everybody knows that by now and they plan on it.

[Auburn1992 3]

Doesn't really matter who the next round would've been or if we would've had USC this round; the way the team is playing, a 16 seed would've sent us packing
