Takeaways from Auburn basketball vs St Louis

This one was tough.

What a poorly officiated game.

Auburn defeats St. Louis 74-70 in St. Louis in a very oddly officiated game.

Give St. Louis credit, they fought hard and played well down the stretch. Yuri Collins is a legitimate point guard. But the Billikens were aided by the officiating crew in key moments. KD Johnson was mauled constantly and nobody batted an eye.

The Tigers defense needs work. As does the shot selection. There were issues exposed in this game that Auburn will be working on. Thank goodness Allen Flanigan is coming back.

Here are five takeaways from Auburn vs St. Louis.
