AUBURN — Auburn basketball will be tied for first place in the SEC if it can score a win over Alabama.

The Tigers and Crimson Tide have played once already this season, with the latter topping the former in a thriller at Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa. Auburn was down by 14 points at halftime before going on a run and briefly taking the lead in the second half. Alabama, however, punched back and hung on late for the win. Johni Broome shined in that one with 25 points, 14 rebounds and five blocks in 26 minutes.
