Twitter reacts to Auburn blowing out Missouri
Auburn needed a win like that.
After the Tigers lost their past three games they needed a win to stop the bleeding. They did just that Tuesday night, completely dominating the Missouri Tigers, and cruising to an 89-56 win in Neville Arena.
Auburn quickly took control of the game, storming out to a 19-2 lead thanks to some impressive shot-making and great defense. Auburn drained three of their first four 3-pointers and held Missouri to 18 first-half points.
K.D. Johnson was the star of the first half, scoring 14 first-half points on 5-of-6 shooting. Johni Broome nearly had another first-half double-double, finishing the opening period with 11 points and eight rebounds.
He made sure to get his double-double in the second half, finishing the night with 20 points and 10 rebounds. Allen Flanigan also finished in double figures, scoring 16 points on 6-of-7 shooting.
The blowout win fired up the Auburn fanbase, here are the top Twitter reactions to the big win.

Wendell Green Jr. finished w/ 9 asts & no turnovers tonight. He joins Jared Harper, who had 9 asts & no turnovers vs Mississippi State in 2019, as the only @AuburnMBB players who have had at least 9 assists and no turnovers in game since at least the 2010-11 season.#WarEagle

Wendell didn’t score a lot tonight but his presence was massive. Only had 5 points but having 9 assists and 0 turnovers was so impactful. Hell of a quiet game. We see you, Wen. 🫡
