Auburn hit something like their first 14 FTs, finally missed a couple later in the game. Most of our misses were from the big guys - Ado had to of missed at least 5 or 6.

Auburn's 92% (21 of 23) was exceptional free-throw shooting. They are at 70.5% for the year (165th in Division I), while MSU is at 74.2% (54th).

Note that while State was called for only one more foul (21 vs 20), the Bulldogs shot 34 times to Auburn's 21 and actually scored more points from the stripe (23 vs 21).

Did you hear Howland talking about too many misses in the postgame? He mentioned that they were talking a lot of trash to our free throw shooters. He said that's ok, but it's not ok to respond to them, and we had a couple guys talking back to them. I take it Ado was one, and from watching I think Nick may have been the other. Coach said he was gonna talk to them about that Monday....

I noticed on a 2nd free throw that Nick shot after making the first then got in on Auburn trash talk while dribbling before his 2nd and missed it badly. Was in a close spurt in the 2nd half if I remember correctly.

Somewhere in the middle of the first half, Peters hit a 3 from the corner right in front of their bench. Looked like Pearl said something to him right before he shot it. He could’ve been talking to the defender, but after Peters hit it, he stared Pearl down as he walked right by him.
