00:00The Auburn Tigers in the South region in South regional final
00:03yesterday evening in Atlanta, Georgia against the two seed in
00:07Michigan State. Could Tom Izzo and the Spartans play spoiler
00:11Auburn who had struggled down the stretch of the regular
00:14season into the SEC tournament dropping three of their final
00:17four entering the big dance. Would this be their undoing? Not
00:21quite the Tigers win by 670 to 64 Auburn covers as a five and a
00:27half point favorite to claim the South regional crown in
00:31Atlanta, a total of 147 and a half does stay well under as
00:37well. And Joe, we said at that final score with Auburn still
00:40covering but only by the hook, not truly indicative of how
00:43dominant the Tigers were really from about the 15 minute mark in
00:47the opening half until about the three minute mark in the second
00:50half when finally Jaden Aikens and MSU got going offensively,
00:55but it was mostly an all Auburn game in Atlanta, Georgia
00:58yesterday evening.
01:00It was all Tigers all day. And we kind of knew that this was
01:05going to be the biggest test for Michigan State that a team that
01:10let's be honest here, Ben could not shoot the three. What you
01:14had done a really good job of playing very bad in the first
01:18half, but managing to be able to limit the opponents in the
01:22second half to give themselves a chance to come back and win
01:25some games. But that was simply because other teams couldn't
01:28make shots in the second half. But that was not the case. I
01:32think Auburn won that game in the first half. I think at that
01:35point, what you saw there I it was a different beast for
01:39Michigan State. They were not at any point to me coming back in
01:43that game in the second half.
