Justin and Dan start the show by recapping Auburn basketball’s 30-point beatdown of Ole Miss. They talk about why the Tigers matched up so well against the Rebels, starting with the massive advantage up front with Johni Broome and Chaney Johnson. They discuss Chad Baker-Mazara’s “flu game” and how it triggered the return of Auburn’s 3-point shooting inside Neville Arena.

The guys then look at the state of the SEC with three games to play, starting with the midweek recap and a look at the championship implications down the stretch. Justin makes his pitch for the All-SEC squad this season. Dan wonders about the teams that could make some noise on the bubble.

The episode concludes with a preview of Auburn’s trip to Kentucky, where a drought-ending win and a title-clinching moment could await the Tigers inside Rupp Arena. The guys break down the Wildcats on both ends of the floor and how the Tigers might match up with them in this Saturday showdown. Then they pay tribute to the late Gene Hackman and give their picks for his best performances.
