Twitter reacts to Kentucky crushing Auburn
Auburn kept it close for most of the first half but was unable to keep up with the Kentucky Wildcats as they pulled away to blow out Auburn 86-54 in Rupp Arena.
The Tiger’s defense was no match for the Kentucky offense which shot 56.1% from the field and made 8-of-13 three-pointers. Oscar Tshiebwe was nearly unstoppable, scoring 22 points and grabbing 17 rebounds to lead Kentucky to victory. Four different Wildcats scored in double figures.
Auburn’s offense went cold on the other end, they shot just 33.9% from the floor and committed 13 turnovers to four assists. Jaylin Williams scored 13 points to lead the Tigers.
Plenty of Auburn fans took to Twitter to react to the loss, here are the top reactions.

From Tennessee to Auburn I don’t think there’s been a coach get 30-balled in Rupp as many times as Bruce Pearl has

Crazy that Auburn just had the weekend off from basketball while the rest of the conference all played, but glad our players got a nice rest before the stretch run.

Oscar is mopping the floor with Johni Broome.

I doubt UK shoots 800% from three in the second half, but it might not matter because Auburn's got nothing offensively right now.

I swear Kentucky shoots 80% from 3 every time we play them

Don't judge, but I have changed to watching the AU-KY basketball game on my laptop and my TV is now streaming the #Auburn #Softball game. I think it's the correct choice. Wish I was wrong. Not gonna lie, I kinda thought it would work out this way.

I wish I could fix it but #Auburn Men's Basketball just doesn't have it on the road this year. Unfortunately, the SEC Tournament and #MarchMadness will not be played at Neville Arena. Sometimes you get the peanuts, sometimes you get the shells. #WarEagle
