Hyper extended elbow on Bromme. That is serious.

 

[ClonerJams]

That didn't look good for Broome

 

[madguy30]

If Broom can't come back Sparty has a legit chance.

 

[Kinch]

Watching Broome land reminds me of Randy Lewis’ fall in his match against Jim Gibbons.

 

[Kinch]

That’s his right elbow, too.

Auburn having trouble rebounding without Broome.

Auburn having trouble rebounding without Broome.

So...injuries to your best player(s) makes a difference?

Auburn was far less dominant to close the season and I think much of it was due to nagging injuries to him.

 

[CycloneErik]

That Johnny Broom guy is pretty good.

No doubt, and now maybe done?

 

[HoopsTournament]

No doubt, and now maybe done?

He's back.

 

[JP4CY]

Smithers, are they saying Boo or Broome?

 

[madguy30]

He's back.

Holy **** yes he is.

That was epic.

 

[exCYtable]

Broome playing on one arm amd one leg is pretty incredible

 

[HoopsTournament]

It's over. Michigan State is not going to overcome this.

 

[Kinch]

Holy **** yes he is.

That was epic.

Kirk Gibson moment.

[t-noah]

Duke must be prepared, for the Eminence Front, of Houston.

 

[BigJCy]

I can tell if I was an Auburn fan or even his coach Baker-Mazara would drive me nuts. Out of control too often.

 

[Pharmacy99]

Pettiford was the #35 ESPN recruit in 2025. If we could get Batemon to perform anywhere near his level I'd take it in a heartbeat

What was Christian Anderson‘s ranking?

 

[Marcelason78]

If he stays in, it will be hack-a-Cardwell time.

 

[CloniesForLife]

If Auburn holds I feel like the tourney kind of validated the regular season this year.

SEC was the best conference.

The Big 12 wasn't too far behind at the top they just didn't have as many tournament teams and their metrics were probably hurt a bit by a slow Houston and Arizona start.

Big 10 had several good but no great teams. I kept hearing from national media how good the conf was but I never saw any elite teams.

ACC was Duke and nothing else.

Big East was down.
