Following their 4th consecutive loss, ESPN has updated the Auburn Tigers‘ bubble status to “should be in.”
Auburn lost to No. 21 Arkansas 88-75 on Saturday, its fourth in a row. This brings their record to 14-11 and 5-7 in SEC play. The Tigers have yet to win a game in the month of February, but this hasn’t completely ruled the Tigers out of the tournament come March. According to ESPN, the Tigers are still in the “should be in” category within the SEC.
Here’s what ESPN had to say about the Tigers:
“Auburn’s fortunes continued to slide with a double-digit loss to Arkansas in Fayetteville on Saturday,” Neil Paine writes. “While the Tigers’ four straight defeats have come against Quadrant 1 opponents — Tennessee, Alabama, Vanderbilt and Arkansas — they have dropped them to 5-7 in SEC play and complicated what once seemed like a strong tournament case. If we zoom out, the Tigers do have four Quadrant 1 wins (including two Quadrant 1A) against the nation’s fourth-most difficult schedule per the BPI, and they remain mid-30s in the national resume ranking average. On paper, those types of teams tend to receive an at-large call, though the BPI is projecting them to potentially not even reach 18 wins. They will be a fascinating litmus test for how much the committee values record versus schedule strength.”
Auburn travels to Mississippi State for its next game on Wednesday, with a tip-off scheduled for 9 p.m. EST.
