St. John’s and Auburn Clash in High-Stakes Showdown: Who Will Sink the Most Buckets?

St. John's and Auburn Clash in High-Stakes Showdown: Who Will Sink the Most Buckets?

Auburn is a team that has had to make a massive transformation this season. Last year, they had Johnni Broome, who is now with the Philadelphia 76ers and playing very few minutes. Simply put, Broome was very good for them last season and was not only a scoring and rebounding leader for them, he was kind of the heart and soul of the team. Losing a guy like that makes it very difficult for a team to rebuild, even in good programs. So far, Auburn is ranked 21st in the rankings, but they are just 5-2 overall. I think you can make a case that these were good losses even if yesterday’s was very ugly. The first loss was one they dropped to Houston by just one point. This was a neutral court game, but seeing as how it was in Birmingham, Alabama, that feels like more of a home game for Auburn than it was for Houston. Yesterday, they dropped the game to Michigan by 30. That was an ugly loss. I would expect head coach Bruce Pearl to emphasize some defensive pressure today.
