Was it the extended arm, the player sliding across the floor, or the lowered shoulder that gave it away? Lol

YES.

[1716AU 732]

Just gotta say it, that was clutch.  They earned it.

[AUBwins 10,119]

I like that Tenn scored 70. Usually that’s the kiss of death for us. Maybe we break that. 

[Eagle-1 3,821]

Great win. 

Should have been two big wins in a row. 

[mustache eagle 2,420]

War Eagle!

great win.  Congrats to this team.

[AUwent 3,778]

Guys deserved it after they caught pretty much every bad break this season.

[81spacetiger 157]

some mojo going to the SEC conference tournament!

[AUBwins 10,119]

And Bama lost as well. Hate it for TAMU that we didn’t get it done. They would have won the league. 

[gabo4au 228]

That's a ticket puncher!

[Randman5000 4,235]

Needed that win! Wde

[AUBwins 10,119]

Glad we locked that up

In last several seasons we had caught some really great breaks late in games. This is the first time since forever that these guys finally got good breaks late in a close game.

Yes. I stand corrected. Team closed out a game against a good team. Would still like to see us win at least two in SEC tourney, to build on. Great win regardless.

Hope we land in Alabama’s side of the bracket

Looks like we’re either playing Arkansas or Florida.

I’ve got tix Friday night…hoping we’re still in it.

Nice much needed win to get ourselves into the tourney. I'm glad we pulled it through

[NoALtiger 3,873]

Well done by Bruce and the guys! Really big game for seeding and for pride if nothing else. Stepped up and maybe get a little momentum for the tournament to make a competitive run. 

[Mike2686 33]

Clutch win! Much needed! I think that locks us into the NCAA Tourney. Hopefully we can move up a few seed lines during the SEC Tourney.

This is why I said what I said about the I blame Pearl as far as the stuff we lack and it's on him, but as far as what he gets out of the team, imo I think it's one of his better coaching jobs. 

My opinion is this is not an overly talented team what so ever, the wins he does get and how this team keeps fighting is something to be noted and admired.

Auburn really needed that win. They played hard and minimized mistakes. A well-deserved V.

 

[autan 759]

I know it's an overused statement, especially this season but it was a "must win" and a big team win as well. WDE!!
