Sharife Cooper And Auburn To Provide Unique Challenge Tuesday

If you rewind to last season you’ll remember the Gators had arguably their best game of the season against the Auburn Tigers who were at the time ranked #4 in the country. Playing Omar Payne next to Kerry Blackshear the Gators pounded the offensive glass relentlessly and blew out the Tigers by a score of 69-47.

They’ll be looking for similar results on Tuesday as the Gators see the Tigers for the first and only time this season. Auburn’s administration and head coach Bruce Pearl decided to self impose a postseason ban this year as rumors swirl around the program that they were involved in some nefarious ways of acquiring players.
