True. Xavier is a shell of what they were last season. Auburn should win that one at least.
X’s problem last season was defense out top. Especially Bluiett and Macura. Goodin, Scruggs, Marshall, and a trimmed down Jones on the block can match up with Auburn just fine. The 3 grad transfers will be needed right away especially sharp shooter Ryan Welage the 6-9 San Jose transfer. Travis Steele is ready for this gig. This game is not too big for him. Defense and Naji Marshall are the keys.

Mariott in Lahaina [iirc] they have a great lua and close to the b-ball arena. Rent a car and take the trip along the coast {I forget the name of the road}..should be an enjoyable vacation and b-ball memory, even though the Cats aren't there.

Uh, ColonelCat....lua is a restroom....LOL J/K

Times Auburn basketball has headlined any event = 0.0

Auburn is close to the bottom of that list as far as basketball programs. They may have a decent team this year, last year, etc., but it won’t be long before they are at the bottom of not only the SEC, but the entire NCAA.

Hey Cats. As you probably know Auburn headlines the field in the 2018 edition. Other teams include Arizona, Duke, Gonzaga, Illinois, Iowa State, San Diego State and Xavier.

Anyway, I assume the Cats have been to this event a few times and was wondering if any esteemed RR community members have been. Thinking about attending so wondering if anyone has any recs. Hotels, tickets, golf etc would be great.

WDE and Go Cats!
Headlines? Lmbo geez. You do know Auburn is historically thee worst SEC team? You got a ok squad. Where is the Entitlement coming from? Do i need to post our head to head record to ease you back down to Earth?

Your basketball program is worse than our football program.

Denim Vest should be easy to spot. He will be wearing his vest and a pair of jorts while carrying his War Eagle towel on the beach.

Actually, Arizona is just a name this year, they may not even make the NCAAT. The only thing that might save them is the weak PAC12.

Yes, we took the family when Tubby was the coach. It was a great time. Rented a house across from Oprah and Sammy Hager’s houses on a cliff over looking the Ocean. The Drive to Hanna was great. I got my tickets trough Indiana and had to sit in their section. They were very nice.

Man this is classic. I really can't tell if the OP is serious or if he just is taking the joke too far. Auburn without the guys who have entered the draft is far from the favorite in this event. If they got 2 of those 3 back then they would be the 2nd or 3rd best team in the event for sure but still no where near the favorite. Duke then Gonzaga then Auburn. Zona is going to be horrible next season so at least there is that.
I just don’t think he’s very smart period !!

The fanbase is buzzing over this event. There could be dozens of proud Aubs in attendance from what I’m hearing.
That's one of the differences between a want to be like Sweaty Cheater like Bruce and your Aubs school you take dozens and we take thousands !! Call me if you ever make a final four , or an elite eight !!! You have the same problem UofSmell has you the second class program in your state and there's not a dam thing you can do about it !!!

Normally that would hurt my feelings, but I'm too focused on beating Duke tonight.
