Auburn is moving on in Nashville.
The Tigers had a big lead in the closing minutes for Ole Miss made a run to cut the deficit to 3 with under a minute to go. However, Auburn star Johni Broome iced the game with a bucket with just over 11 seconds to play. Broome’s turnaround bank shot put Auburn up by 5, which was enough to seal the deal.
