IN CASE YOU DIDN’T HEAR, WE’RE THE TRUE SEC CHAMPIONS.
AUBURN BEAT SOUTH CAROLINA 79-70, COMING BACK FROM A DOUBLE-DIGIT DEFICIT ONCE AGAIN IN GETTING REVENGE OVER THE GAMECOCKS.
FIRST OF ALL, BRYCE BACK.
It just feels unreal, and I’m so thankful.”

WE NEEDED EVERY BIT OF HIS 29 POINTS, AND BRYCE WENT 8-12 FROM THREE TO FULLY REINSERT HIMSELF IN THE CONVERSATION AS ONE OF THE SEC’S MOST DANGEROUS PLAYERS AND BREAK OUT OF HIS SLUMP IN S-T-Y-L-E.
HORACE SPENCER WAS GOOD YESTERDAY TOO.

HE WAS 100% GETTING READY TO BE ALL MAGNANIMOUS AND EPIC AND SPENCER FLAT-OUT RUINED IT.
HERE’S THE END OF THE GAME, AND THE HANDSHAKE BETWEEN BRUCE PEARL AND FRANK MARTIN.

FOR AS STERN AS HE LOOKS, FRANK MARTIN’S A TRUE CLASS ACT. AFTER ANFERNEE MCLEMORE WENT DOWN IN COLUMBIA, HE EXPRESSED GREAT CONCERN OVER THE AUBURN FORWARD’S INJURY, AND AFTER THE TIGERS WON THE SEC YESTERDAY, HE WAS INCREDIBLY GRACIOUS.
Congratulations to @AuburnMBB and @coachbrucepearl winning the SEC Championship is the real deal. Much ✊ to how hard Auburn has worked to create that environment. Your crowd was awesome and not one person was rude #Respect

BRUCE IS JUST BEING POLITE.
WE REMEMBER WHAT REALLY HAPPENED.
SEE YOU IN ST. LOUIS, BUT NOT UNTIL FRIDAY, BECAUSE THE SEC CHAMPS GET A DOUBLE-BYE. WAR EAGLE.
