Two of their guys—Howard and Hudson, who appear to be getting meaningful minutes on at least the fringe of their rotation—got into a brawl DURING a flight on Auburn’s first road trip, to Houston back in November. It was so bad, the plane had to be diverted. I think they were both sent home, but I’m not sure of that.

Maybe issues like that have been papered over in their locker room, and maybe that’s just how Auburn rolls, but I’m hoping this is one game where team culture really does make a difference.

Here's the Primer for Auburn tomorrow. A lot of mutual respect between these coaches and programs, as was evident in their press conferences today.

Watched their press conference today. First question to the players and coach was about a lack of focus and energy. Hopefully that continues into tomorrow.

It's no primer, but here's my preview if you're interested in additional reading. Hit on a lot of Auburn's strengths and the challenges their personnel will present for Creighton.

I am less worried about Broome and more worried about how our defense will fare against their stable of 3 point shooters. Mac hit the nail on the head, the guys need to be ready and bring their A game to win tonight. And fingers crossed we remain hot from 3.
