When Walker Kessler found himself with the ball in his hands and an open court ahead of him, Auburn coach Bruce Pearl finally got what he had long desired: A chance to cheer on his players from the sidelines. But even though it felt like every bucket was a miracle at that moment – there just weren’t enough left over for everyone’s satisfaction!
The Auburn Tigers were in desperate need of an inspiration, and they found it with less than two minutes left on the clock. Down 60-57 to Texas A&M after a sloppy first half that saw them go 0 for 6 from 3 point range.
