MURRAY, Ky. – It took some late-game heroics, but Auburn left Murray State with an 81-77 win Tuesday night, its second true road victory of the season.
The Tigers were led by junior Desean Murray, who finished with a team-high 18 points and nine rebounds, but he was one of four players to score in double figures as Auburn has now won eight straight games for the first time since the 2002-03 season.
Here are three takeaways from Tuesday’s game.
