Good Morning, Auburn Family. Denver Jones—who led the team with 21 points—got No. 1 Auburn off to a hot start, then Chaney Johnson and Johni Broome took over in the second half to give the top-ranked Tigers an 80-68 road win over Vanderbilt Tuesday at Memorial Gymnasium, which sounded at times like Neville Arena.

“Our fans are traveling. They’ve embraced this program, they certainly love this team,” Auburn coach Bruce Pearl said.

No. 1 Auburn (22-2, 10-1) makes history Saturday at 3 p.m. CT against No. 2 Alabama in Tuscaloosa, the first No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup in Southeastern Conference history.
