For the fourth time this season, Auburn topped the 100-point mark. It's the first time that's happened in a season since 1994. Needless to say, Bruce Pearl was plenty pleased after No. 13 Auburn's 101-74 win at Missouri. The win gave Auburn its 23rd of the season, all by double digits, and 13th 20-plus-point win of the season, which is the most of any team in the SEC. It was as complete a beatdown as the Tigers have laid on an opponent this season. Johni Broome poured in 17 points, followed by 15 points each from Jaylin Williams and Chad Baker-Mazara, 12 points from Dylan Cardwell, 10 points from Denver Jones, and nine each from Aden Holloway and Tre Donaldson.
