Auburn basketball proved last Saturday that any win is a good win. The No. 1 Tigers defeated No. 7 Tennessee, 53-51, on Saturday at Neville Arena despite shooting 31% from the field. Two of its offensive weapons, Denver Jones and Chad Baker-Mazara, were shut out from the field, and freshman Tahaad Pettiford shot 33% on the night.

Miles Kelly hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 30 seconds remaining and Johni Broome had 16 points and 13 rebounds in his return to the lineup as No. 1 Auburn extended its winning streak to 11 games with a 53-51 win over No.

Auburn men’s basketball sits atop the AP top 25 for a third straight week. It comes after a 53-51 victory over Tennessee, behind a double-double performance from leading scorer Johni Broome. Duke remains at No. 2 in the AP poll with the Iowa State Cyclones at No. 3.
