In front of a sold-out crowd of 8,728 people, the UAB men’s basketball team fell to Auburn on Saturday, Dec. 3 by a score of 74-70.

This was the second of a four game series to be played by these two teams, which began with the season opener last year.

“It’s been since 1998 since Auburn played in Birmingham. That’s just too long for us to be down there and not come up here,” said Auburn Head Coach Bruce Pearl after the game.
