Auburn University was the only SEC basketball team to make it to the final four of the NCAA Tournament. Throughout the tournament, Auburn was trying to prove to the nation that they are not just a football school, but also a good basketball school.
Attention began to mount on Auburn when they defeated number 1 seed North Carolina 97-80. This was one of the major wins that allowed them to advance to the final four for the first time in school history.
While Auburn made school history by getting into the final four, they sadly were defeated by Virginia and were unable to advance to the final game. This basketball season was a rollercoaster of emotions for all Auburn fans, but Auburn should be able to get back to the final four next year, and hopefully win the Men’s NCAA Basketball Championship.
No matter what happens, all Auburn fans should be proud of what their team accomplished this season, and nothing should stop them from saying “War Eagle!”
