Auburn vs. North Carolina Game Preview and Open Thread

It’s been a long week, but we’ve made it to Gameday! Auburn will take the court tonight in Kansas City versus the Top Seed in the Midwest, the North Carolina Tar Heels. Auburn makes it’s 1st Sweet 16 appearance since 2003 when they ran into some guy named Carmelo Anthony and the Syracuse Orange, who beat them 79-78 on their way to a National Championship. One of Auburn’s best players on that 2003 team was Marquis Daniels, who of course is now back at Auburn coaching this year. Auburn makes it’s 5th Sweet 16 appearance all-time and are 1-3 in this round.
