in Auburn's 2 losses this year Duke and Florida got really hot from three. I can see UK doing the same. UK also beat the 2 teams to best Auburn this year. Auburn nevers plays well at rupp. 2-51 all time at UK. I am nervous
 
I think it will be a 2 possession game with 2 minutes left.
I think Auburn will go out to a couple 10 point leads when Butler and Oweh have to get a blow, but will find a way to get back in it.
It will come down to who makes the plays at the end.
I trust Baker Mazara, Denver Jones, Broome and Cardwell a bit more unfortunately.

Pettiford has been Auburn's guy late in road games to step up but he has been in a funk the last 2-3 games.

This team’s vastly better than the typical Auburn team, so I don’t think history is much of a factor.
 
What’s the deal there? Thought I saw that he played in the last game.
Yeah he played the first half. Then sat the entire second half with ice wrapped around his wrist.

UK has been pretty silent as to what the actual wrist injury is, but Pope did say he did not come out of the OU game in good shape.

My guess is UK will give it one more go with him in the SEC Tourney to see how the wrist responds. If he is having the same issue, would assume they just shut him down for the NCAAs.

Sounds like there's a good possibility he'll need surgery and will be done for the year.
 
Seems like Auburn should be up by more then 8, if UK can keep it to 6-8 pts going into halftime with all the careless TOs they have had, I would take that in a second.
