AuburnEagle79 2,169 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I really can't believe what I've been watching the past month. After the UK blowout, I was pretty sure we may dial it in, get a low seed, and be an early exit. Thank goodness I'm great at being wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the only way to hear Auburn NCAA Tournament games is via Auburn radio affiliates. https://auburntigers.com/watch is not even allowed to re-broadcast NCAA tournament games. And no YouTube highlight compilation. ☹️ Auburn basketball puts one out shortly after each game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cole256 17,084 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Right now is the time to sell the program, get kids interested. Tell the stories of playing freshman season and all of that. You can come here and be on the stage playing against the schools with a bunch of tradition. This is a very important time as far as recruiting as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His charisma and enthusiasm are so apparent on TV, I imagine they are equally apparent in a living room. I am hopeful we can build on and sustain the success (something we just haven’t pulled off in football, much to my chagrin). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right this is what we would fail to do in football. It's the difference between us and Clemson IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Charles is helping with the easy sale of Auburn being on the set talking about being family and everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUsince72 11,084 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Maybe Gus can hire Bruce as a Motivation Consultant for the football season... Bruce's job will simply be running up and down the sidelines during the game yelling and pumping up the team. I'm not even a real basketball fan and I was fired up..... just watching him! 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaq probably even couldn’t. If Kenny did that by himself with UNC, he wouldn’t have been able to pull it off. I’m sure Kansas fans didn’t like seeing it again at halftime with Charles fully confident. Wish we could’ve seen Charles after the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravejd 3,270 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 That first half was some beautiful b-ball. I mean we did absolutely everything right and hit all our shots. BB started off the game 5/5 from 3 or something crazy like that. But really the entire team as nothing but net on every thing we through at the basket. Harper has some great drives and lay ins. And that dunk by Harper.....savage. I was waiting for the block from behind but Harper threw that down with authority. I knew with that play that we came to take of business. Love it!! second half showed that Kansas was the way better half court team. They also beat us up pretty good inside. That’s going to be a problem going forward. We were tenacious denying the entry pass in the first half but slacked off in the second. It happens with big leads. Sweet 16 baby! So proud and happy for our players. They’ve come so far this season. I didn’t know if it was going to come together but it has and this bunch is a joy to watch play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
