The Auburn Tigers have not been a good team for years in the SEC. They have brought in a strong coach in Bruce Pearl, which will ultimately make them better down the road, but for now, he simply doesn't have a lot to work with. Antoine Mason is a nice scoring addition as he led the country in scoring at Niagara a year ago, but while he is getting 19 points per game, the shots aren't coming as easy against better competition. He is shooting just 35%, and 33% from deep. Tulsa has regrouped off a tough loss vs. Oral Roberts in their opener to get to 2-1 on the season. One of the biggest differences is the Golden Hurricanes top two scorers both shoot over 50%, while Auburn is getting scoring, but at a very low percentage. Auburn is 7-19-1 ATS in their last 27 at a neutral site, and Golden Hurricane are now 36-16-1 ATS in their last 53 including 9-1 ATS vs. a team over .600. Make the play on Tulsa.
