SEC Basketball Recap: conference play begins with a bang

Happy Sunday, BBN–what a week it has been. While the ‘Cats were cruising in Rupp, other SEC teams began their conference journeys as well. Here are some of the highlights from the last several days:

No. 16 LSU at No. 11 Auburn

The Auburn Tigers started up conference play with a bang after easily handling No. 16 LSU 70-55 on Wednesday night–and they couldn’t have done it without big man Walker Kessler.

Kessler was a problem for the boys from Baton Rouge, to say the least. He blocked LSU’s first three shots before they were finally able to make a basket, helping Auburn to an 18-0 run to begin the game.
