Auburn’s four-game win streak came to an end on the road at Tennessee, as the Tigers struggled to find their rhythm in a tough SEC matchup. In this episode of The Barn Hoops Podcast, we break down the key issues that led to the loss, starting with Auburn’s inability to knock down shots from beyond the arc. The Tigers’ cold three-point shooting made it difficult to keep pace, while Tennessee’s dominance on the glass exposed Auburn’s rebounding shortcomings.

Despite the disappointing result, one major bright spot was Filip Jovic, who delivered an impressive performance and showed why he can be a crucial piece moving forward.

We also discuss why this loss isn’t a huge detriment to Auburn’s season goals, serving more as a learning moment than a setback. Finally, we look ahead to next Saturday’s showdown against Alabama, a massive opportunity for Auburn to bounce back in front of a national spotlight.

Josh Pate continues to be one of the loudest national voices showing real respect to what Auburn is building — and his latest comments on Alex Golesh and this roster should have fans paying attention. Pate made it clear he thinks highly of Golesh as a program builder, and even suggested Auburn has the kind of roster that could absolutely put itself in the playoff conversation this fall if things click early.

He also went deeper on Golesh’s work ethic, emphasizing how much that matters not just on Saturdays, but in the daily grind — recruiting, culture, player development, and the consistency it takes to win at the highest level in the SEC. We break down why that off-the-field edge might be just as important as anything Auburn does schematically.

And then we shift to hoops, where Auburn has another huge opportunity tomorrow — a statement road test against Tennessee. A win there could be the kind of moment that defines the season. #WarEagle #AuburnFootball #AuburnBasketball #SEC

Auburn Basketball kept the momentum rolling with an impressive win over Texas, securing its fourth consecutive victory and continuing a strong stretch of play on both ends of the floor. After a trailing big in the first half, the Tigers flipped the switch coming out of the break, fueled by a second-half charge led by Keyshawn Hall and Kevin Overton. Their energy, scoring punch, and timely plays helped Auburn seize control and close out another statement win.

This episode of The Barn Hoops Podcast breaks down how Auburn’s defense has steadily improved over the last four games, showing sharper rotations, tougher on-ball pressure, and a more connected effort that’s turning stops into scoring opportunities.

We’ll also look ahead to a massive road test at Tennessee, where Auburn’s streak will be challenged in one of the toughest environments in college basketball. Can the Tigers keep surging? Tune in for the full recap and preview.
