Auburn falls two spots in latest KenPom update following loss to Mississippi State

After a rough week on the road, It is safe to say that Auburn will be elated to return to Neville Arena on Wednesday.

The road was not kind to No. 6 Auburn last week, as it sustained its first two-game skid of the season.

Auburn erased its 11-game win streak on Wednesday by falling to Alabama in Tuscaloosa, then dropped another game in a defensive slugfest with Mississippi State on Saturday to drop their SEC record to 5-2.

Losing can be tough, especially on the road. How much did it affect its ranking in the latest KenPom update? Surprisingly, not that much. The Tigers remain in the top 10, and remain one of the best teams in the SEC based on efficiency on both sides of the ball.

There was one stat, however, that has dropped drastically over the last week. Which one is it? Here’s a look at where Auburn stands in the latest KenPom rankings update following Saturday’s action.
