Brief thoughts and grades: No. 1 Auburn over Georgia

AUBURN -- Before getting into No. 1 Auburn's 12-point win over Georgia, let's acknowledge and truly appreciate something else. For the sixth time in the last eight seasons, Auburn basketball has won at least 25 games. Before that, before Bruce Pearl arrived, the Tigers' program accomplished 25 wins in a season exactly one time. Remarkable. There will be a day when Pearl isn't the head coach at Auburn anymore. Until then, appreciate every second, and as Pearl said last week after the win over Arkansas, don't take it for granted.
