Auburn lost to Ole Miss 86-84 today. Now I’ve got one word to say to you all about this: inexplicable. Despite leading by double digits the Tigers couldn’t come away with a win and they advance to 10-10 overall.
Large leads aren’t safe with this Auburn team. Remember that 12-point lead Auburn had over Arkansas at halftime that just mysteriously evaporated? Oh, and that blown call at the end of the game where Sharife got mugged yeah that sucked too. This time the officials gifted us with a phantom charge call against Sharife that robbed the Tigers of a bucket and eventually set up Ole Miss to tie the game.
I’m tired y’all, but I still love Auburn. Here’s Twitter’s reactions.

BS charge call changed the whole game. Auburn woulda been up 10 with momentum, instead, an obvious wrong call let's Ole Miss cut it to 4.

And now I’m sad.

In my professional and unbiased opinion, Sharife needs to stay another year

Kermit Davis really has Bruce Pearl's number. I mean he owns him.

two absolute trash losses in a row at home

Really…..
Still can't blow a 14 point lead at home though….or that shot doesn't matter— Bobcat (@Bobcat_AU) February 6, 2021
Good thing this year in sports doesn’t count

I think Cooper hurting his knee or whatever it was really hurt Auburn’s chances today. Lots of mistakes in the end either way, but he seemed hesitant after his long break until the last few minutes.

Proof that one bad call can swing the momentum of the entire game.

Supremely talented b-ball team that doesn't know how to play with a lead and has trouble finishing. Reminds me a lot of the '16-'17 team. Guys got bigger and stronger and won the SEC regular season the next year. #MISSvsAUB

That one hurt. Man! Proud of our team for the hustle. As I’ve said all season, good things are ahead. WDE!!!! 🧡💙🏀🙌🏻

Auburn had good scoring balance, but too many turnovers and the inability to get help on White. Dude was 14-18 from the field.

Death, taxes, Kermit beating Bruce :/

Sharife’s 3-ball can improve. Hopefully he’ll hang around next season to work on that.
Not qualified to criticize.

And to cope with that game, I’m now going to start Wandavision to see what the hype is about 🙃

One player will not take this team from .500 to a top 10 team. Our current players need to take a huuuge step before next season.
— All Aubarn All Day (@AllAubarn) February 6, 2021
Heartbreaker. Another big lead slipped away and resulted in a loss. Missed FTs in OT hurt. Props to Ole Miss for coming back and Shuler hitting a big shot.
— MasonRyne22 (@masonryne22) February 6, 2021
Come on back Sharife!!!
— Mitchell Feemster (@FeemsterAU) February 6, 2021
It sucks but this year doesn’t count. I don’t look at it as a wins or losses just potential. They’re just young and dumb.
— Graham Carr (@grahamcarr2) February 6, 2021
Auburn scored 44 points as a team after halftime
Devontae Shuler and Romello White scored 39

Kermit Davis absolutely owns Bruce Pearl. Kicks our ass with zero talent consistently. … Yes a young team but really poor efforts from team and staff.
— Sean Parker (@ThePorkOfYork) February 6, 2021
Wow,can't believe that went to ot in the first place.
— Den Gary (@Denvell2814) February 6, 2021
Well, that sucked.
A blown 19-point lead, a loss at home to a team you had already beaten by 20 on the road, and a blown double-digit lead at home in conference play.
Two games in a row, both at home, Auburn has been outplayed and out-hustled.

At least this season doesn’t matter. That’s what we can tell ourselves.

College basketball would be better if we just let players call their own fouls like pick up ball tbh.
