To some, the tweet sent out by Auburn basketball head coach Bruce Pearl’s daughter Jacqui was controversial. To Auburn fans, Pearl is just saying what we’re all thinking. Ahead of an NCAA tournament that will feature six SEC teams–NOT including Auburn, unfortunately– Pearl shared who she would be cheering for in March Madness.

According to her tweet, Pearl will be rooting for the SEC–mostly. Tne team-who-will-not-be-named from the Tigers’ conference will not get any love from Pearl, who is clearly a true Auburn fan.

It’s not impossible to guess which team she’s talking about.
