Frankie Sullivan’s not all the way back from the ACL tear that cost him all but six games last season.
TAMPA, Fla. — Auburn junior guard Frankie Sullivan made a surprise comeback Wednesday night for the Tigers.
Although Auburn’s mens basketball team scored the first 7 points in its game against Rutgers on Saturday, the Tigers somehow managed to drop yet another contest, as they fell to Rutgers, 63-54, in the SEC-Big East Invitational in Pittsburgh.
Auburn is taking its first winning streak of the season into its toughest test of the year.
The Auburn men’s basketball team will aim to string together two wins today for the first time all season when it hosts Arkansas-Pine Bluff at the Auburn Arena.
The Auburn basketball team overcame its season-high 23 turnovers Tuesday night by shooting a season-high 51.7 percent from the field to take down Divison-II foe Georgia Southwestern, 78-50.
Bad habits have a way of cropping up over and over again, especially in the case of a young team that’s still trying to find its footing.
Tony Barbee said he’s excited about his first “full-time signing class,” which he solidified Monday.
