Opponent scouting report: Auburn Tigers

ESPN:The big ten FINED two players for rep…….

The Indiana Hoosiers (7-1, 2-0 in the Big Ten) hit the road again for a neutral site game in Atlanta against Bruce Pearl’s Auburn Tigers.

Pearl won the Division II national championship, coaching the Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles.

Auburn is currently unranked but highly thought of by the computer polls – No. 15 by BartTorvik.com and No. 17 by KenPom.com.

The Tigers have struggled to shoot threes in the last few games, and the woes helped Appalachian State pull an upset over Auburn the previous time out. Auburn made three of 27 three-point attempts in the road loss.

Despite Auburn’s 5-2 record, Saturday’s game will significantly challenge the Hoosiers.
