The Auburn Tigers beat the Michigan State Spartans on Sunday to earn the school's second ever trip to the Final Four. Auburn won 70–64 thanks to a heroic performance by senior Johni Broome who finished with 25 points and 14 rebounds despite suffering a scary injury that forced him to miss time in the second half before making a dramatic comeback.
The Tigers' second leading scorer was freshman Tahaad Pettiford who had 10 points to go along with three assists, one rebound, one steal and one block.
