The regular season is complete and Auburn finally came though with a much-needed victory against No. 12 Tennessee. In the final game of the season, the Tigers beat the No. 3 team in the NET rankings by nine points, earning their third Quad I win of the year. Auburn finishes the season with a 20-11 overall record and 10-8 record in SEC play. It's the fifth time in six seasons the Tigers have finished with 20 wins. Don't take that for granted. As we always do, let’s take a look at Auburn’s resume as Pearl’s squad fights for their fourth NCAA Tournament appearance in the last six seasons, and would be fifth appearance in the last six years, if not for the COVID-shortened season.
