No one in the country was as hot as the Auburn basketball team when it played Alabama a few weeks ago in Tuscaloosa. With multiple starters absent from the Alabama lineup, this game had the look of a potential blowout in Tuscaloosa. However, Auburn played its worst game of the season to that date against the Tide.
Yet, fast forward a few weeks, and Auburn is still on top of the SEC. The Tigers hold a two-game lead over Tennessee with just four games left in the regular season. Auburn will lock up at least part ownership of the SEC regular season championship with a win tonight against the Tide and could outright own it with a Tennessee loss and an Auburn win.
