John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports March 3, 2018 - Auburn Arena
It came down to the Regular season finale for Auburn in their quest for a SEC Championship. The Tigers had fallen in their previous 2 attempts to clinch in road games at Florida and Arkansas. Meanwhile, Tennessee had caught Auburn and would share with Auburn if they won their game that afternoon.
(Although, let’s be really clear and make it known that Auburn won it outright by beating Tennessee in Knoxville back in January of that season).
This marked the final home game for a friend of the program, manager Thomas Northcutt and the Jungle actually made a face cutout in honor of it that I must share with you all here.
