GAME RECAP: Auburn 79, Arkansas 56
This one was over before it started.
Auburn buried six threes in the first seven minutes and opened up a 22-1 lead over the Arkansas Razorbacks, never looking back as the Tigers nabbed SEC win number seven by a final score of 79-56.
The Tigers built a 30-point lead during the first half, led by 25 at the break, and got an incredibly even scoring effort, sparked by Malik Dunbar early in his first start of the season. Auburn didn’t shoot well at the foul line and turned the ball over a ton, but the rebounding game was fabulous, and the three-point shooting effort was such a huge disparity that nothing else mattered.
