Justin, Dan and Painter break down Auburn basketball’s streak-snapping loss at Alabama. They look at what went wrong for the Tigers in the first half, what changed in the second half and why this loss — despite its rivalry status — is ultimately a learning experience more than a big blow for the season.

After a brief music discussion, Justin, Dan and Painter open the show with a breakdown of Auburn basketball’s 15-point road win over Vanderbilt.

Justin, Dan and Painter open the show by breaking down Auburn basketball’s latest double-digit win — a 15-point victory over LSU at home to improve to 3-0 in conference play.

The guys talk about how the Tigers’ continued winning streak is particularly impressive in the context of what went down in college basketball this week. They look at how the Auburn defense paved the way to a victory, what happened in a second-half slump that briefly made the game interesting and why Vanderbilt remains a challenging road matchup, no matter the record.

Then it’s a switch over to football, where they discuss the departures of Cadillac Williams and Zac Etheridge from the staff and who might replace them. They also talk about Jarquez Hunter returning to the program for the 2024 season and share their thoughts on Alabama’s hire to replace Nick Saban.
