The No. 6 Auburn Tigers are currently experiencing its first losing streak of the 2023-2024 basketball season.
Just three days after losing a heartbreaker in Tuscaloosa, Auburn failed to win another road matchup in Starkville, MS.
Aden Holloway, Johni Broome, and company couldn’t get anything going all afternoon on the offensive side of the ball, as Auburn scored just 58 points. That total was far and away the lowest of the year.
Bruce Pearl’s squad has now fallen to fourth in the SEC after leading the way in the conference for all of 2024.
Here are some of the best photos from the shocking loss.
