playing hard all game long, short of gas, short of talent, short of height, long of heart and guts. Bruce Pearl brings energy to Auburn and the SEC that is refreshing. LSU, A&M, and Ole Miss should take mental notes !
Kudos to Auburn..

Agreed. Their pathetic display early ruined the flow of the game.
Our guys could not even guard AU due to the crap fouls they kept calling...refs gave AU SIXTY FTs in the two games against UK this year. Give me a break.
I think some of their early physical play could more or less be the result of them trying to get UK off its game and also just fatigue. Pearl had them ready to play, and it showed. The only way they were going to stand a chance was to slow it down, grind it out and make it physical. They tried, but that just isn't flying on that. Either way, they gave it a valiant effort and that should be applauded.
Auburn played about as well as they could. Being shorthanded and going on 4 games in as many days, not to mention playing against the best team in the nation, finally took it's toll on them. I applaud their effort.
No kudos from me. Auburn didn't play basketball. They literally tried to draw fouls more than actually hit shots. Flopping, hacking.
Can't respect that.
