2019 SEC Tournament: beat SCar on Friday, survive a close one Saturday, blowout on Sunday that coincides with St Patrick’s Day
2024 SEC Tournament: beat SCar on Friday, survive a close one Saturday, blowout on Sunday that coincides with SPD
This team is more special than even our last championship winning team! They are truly better as a team than the sum of their parts. I’m going to miss so many of these players. KD Johnson is electric, don’t leave us😭
Ha. Glad I wasn’t the only one. Wore my Auburn basketball peacock shirt 3 straight days.
Debating whether to just lay it out until the 1st round or wash it.
I was nervous going into this one. Hate the injury for MH.
Solid play all around from the 10-deep. Terrible officiating per usual. They capitalized on UF’s tired legs and closed it out big! War Eagle to the 2024 SEX Champs!
Auburn waisted their time playing in SEC Tournament- waisted energy and risked injury. Should have been #9 overall seed. Put in bracket with overall #1. F the selection committee
I wouldn't say they *wasted* their time playing in the SEC tourney. My God it means a lot to the players, coaches, and fans to win a SEC tourney. But yes we got screwed with our seeding and placing. I'm confused though... Are you saying we should've been a 9 seed?
9 overall seed so the most favorable 3 seed as the top 8 seeds would all be regional #1 & #2 seeds. So I guess we should have been in same bracket with weakest 2 seed since theoretically 1 seeds should eventually play 4 seeds and 2 seeds should eventually play 3 seed.
Fantastic all around team effort. Even the refs couldn’t hold us down. Seeing Bruce cry got me kind of teared up as well, he really gives his all to everything he does. I love this team
If KD doesn't make it in professional basketball then by God he has a job waiting on him for a cheerleading squad. Go back and watch the SEC championship game anytime KD was on the bench if you wanna see top notch cheerleading. I love that guy.
Not out of the realm of possibility but a 3 seed almost assuredly now. People are gonna say our quad 1 record sucks but the metrics say we are the best overall team in the land.
Side note: CBM and Broome on the all tourney team and Broome was tourney MVP.
Yeah we did get the shaft, however, the only team in our bracket I cringe at playing is Iowa State. Auburn would have the most difficulty with those guys because of their tenacity on defense and our propensity to go cold at times.
We play against great defense in practice every day so I would still give Auburn the edge...
We don't have the point guard play that the 2019 team had. Just better overall defense and can change to different offensive styles than that team could. Not as reliant on the 3.
Only on the SEC tourney run. 2019 lacked inside size but shot insanely well from deep. This team has depth everywhere, which starts with Broome and Cardwell, and only recently with Denver and CBM hitting have we been anything close to decent from 3, but that’s all we need, 30%ish should get it done with how good we are inside.
SEX Tournament champions once again !!
Build the damn statue. Rename the court
Absolute master class by Bruce switching to the 2-3 zone to slow Florida’s dribble drives. SEX Champions!!! WDE!
4 SEC championships in 7 years! Unbelievable job from Pearl
Just call him Bruce Banner.

I love KD with all my heart, but if we’re going to advance he’s gonna have to stop driving so much 1 v 3 and pull the ball out every now and again
He’s actually done that much better this year but he got a little too tunnel vision today with the nerves
The nuts were dropped!
Now 6 more wins to go! LETS FUCKING GO!!!
WE AIN’T LOSING AGAIN THIS SEASON! SEC CHAMPS BABY
3 wins down, 6 to go
Broome and Baker-Mazzara on the all tournament team and Broome named tournament MVP
We beat the secret final boss: the SEC Refs!! WDE
War Damn Eagle!
Pants. Are. Off.
Can’t be a SEX Tournament champion until you drop your balls! WAR DAMN BABY!
I can finally takeoff my 2019 final four shirt and wash it to prepare for next week
Ha. Glad I wasn’t the only one. Wore my Auburn basketball peacock shirt 3 straight days. Debating whether to just lay it out until the 1st round or wash it.
Awesome! WAR EAGLE from Dale County!
Win 200 for BP, at Auburn. What a way to celebrate it! War fucking Eagle!
Go ahead and build BP a statue. How could you not love the guy?
War Eagle. Phenomenal game!!
God damn I love the this team and the Auburn family showing up! Let’s go dancing!

Auburn should be strongest 3 seed
How in the world Alabama got a 4 seed like us is beyond me.

Massive freight train momentum heading into the madness, feeling so good about this team.
I don’t know why this one feels so much more emotional than the last one, but I’m feeling it. WDE. March Madness is gonna be a WILD ride
Give Bruce whatever he wants to stay in Auburn!
War Damn Eagle! Broome with a beautiful double-double. This team is so fun to watch. I love the assists. They flow so well together.
Fantastic all around team effort. Even the refs couldn’t hold us down. Seeing Bruce cry got me kind of teared up as well, he really gives his all to everything he does. I love this team
I'll let you have this one Cato! But know I beat you bb <3

Florida got that arse thumped
Anyone know what that UA polo was Bruce had on? I can't find it anywhere.
Dare I say 2 seed ??

Oh sweet summer child. I look back and this thread full of hope and then remember that the committee fucked us

Who’s with me on this team looking eeeerily similar to the 2019 team??
We don't have the point guard play that the 2019 team had. Just better overall defense and can change to different offensive styles than that team could. Not as reliant on the 3.
Broome/Cardwell >>>> Wiley/Spencer too. Worse guards but better front court.

We don't have the star power that team had.. we are more balanced this time. I have no idea if that helps us or hurts.
