Beating Alabama in anything never gets old. Beating them twice in the same season in basketball is sweet. Overcoming a 34-23 halftime deficit, the Tigers win in Tuscaloosa 66 to 60.
As the game wound down, the Tigers go on an 18 to 2 surge to take over the game. Coach Pearl gets a technical to ignite the team. Okeke scores in the paint and Harper drives to the basket. With the score tied at 60, Auburn scores the final 6 points in the game.
We're told that Alabama desperately needed the win to maintain their shaky chance at an NCAA bid. Didn't happen tonight. Perhaps their bubble has burst. I hope so.
