College Basketball Show With Jim Dunaway and Taylor Korn

• The Arkansas Razorbacks headed into the season with a lot of excitement and high hopes after the Razorbacks hired Kentucky’s John Calipari. The start of the season has been full of disappointment for Arkansas fans as they start 0-5 in SEC play.
• Auburn has now played, and won, two games without their star, Johni Broome. With no mid-week game, could Broome make his return as the Tigers are set to host College GameDay and the Tennessee Vols on Saturday?
• Alabama’s Derrion Reid has been on the bench for Alabama’s past 2 games, Ole Miss and Kentucky, but has been participating in practice. Could we see him Tuesday in Coleman Coliseum vs Vanderbilt?
• Alabama Guard Mark Sears’ name might not be in the headlines as much as it was at the end of last season, but he hasn’t skipped a beat.
• Auburn’s Tahaad Pettiford continues to shine when the lights are brightest. How were Bruce Pearl and the Auburn Tigers able to land the talented freshman out of New Jersey?
• Chad Baker-Mazara had a slow start when the Tigers traveled to Athens to play Georgia on Saturday but played an important role in the second half of the matchup. Auburn fans have nothing to be concerned about with CBM.
• Football State turned basketball state
• Auburn and Alabama are two of the best not only in the SEC, but in the entire country. Could the Tigers sweep the Auburn-Alabama series? Or will they Split — Alabama protecting their home court and the Tigers protecting theirs?

Auburn ESCAPES South Carolina with a 3 point win. Star player Johni Broome goes down with a left ankle injury in Auburn’s 3rd SEC game of the season. Broome has been a consistent producer on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball for the Tigers so far this season and is a massive loss. Entering the game as a 16.5 point favorite, Auburn trailed most of the game but fought back to walk away with a win to remain undefeated in the SEC.

Alabama is coming off a road win at South Carolina, which improved the Crimson Tide’s record to 2-0 in conference play. Up next, they’ll travel to play Texas A&M, which will be their most challenging matchup so far this conference season.

• Mark Sears Stat Comparison: This Season vs Last Season 
• Sears isn’t being talked about as much as he was a year ago, but are his stats BETTER?
• Alabama will most likely be a road underdog when they travel to play Texas A&M Saturday. Will Nate Oats and this Alabama team use that as motivation?
• Should Jarin Stevenson be starting? Stevenson’s offensive production has not lived up to last season’s performance. Should that get him booted from his starting spot on this roster?
• SEC POWER RANKINGS: Who are your Top-5 teams 2 games into conference play? Who has been disappointing so far?

Former Auburn Center, Anfernee McLemore, who was a part of Auburn’s Final Four team, joined Jim Dunaway and Taylor Korn on this episode of The Basketball Show. Fresh off Bruce Pearl’s 214th win that made him the All-Time Winningest Coach in Auburn Basketball History, McLemore gave us insight into what playing under BP is like. After playing 4 years at Auburn, the Auburn Tigers head basketball coach still keeps up with former players. While at Auburn, Pearl was more than just a coach to McLemore — he was a father figure. Caring off the court and encouraging on the court, the relationship between the two went farther than basketball. Anfernee discusses his recruitment, recovering from injury, Auburn’s Final Four run, the impact Bruce Pearl had on his life, and much more.
