Auburn continues to be rated the top team in sport, staying at the top despite not having their best player available

Mazara and friends showed the Bulldogs, the SEC and the rest of the college basketball world there is more than one alpha male in this Jungle.

Auburn basketball head coach Bruce Pearl loved what he saw in the dominant win against Mississippi State on Monday.

Auburn men’s basketball came into Tuesday night’s clash against Mississippi State with a target on its back and missing its best player, Johni Broome. That didn’t end the run of dominance, though, as the Tigers cruised to an 88-66 win over the Bulldogs, improving to 16-1 overall and 4-0 in Southeastern Conference play.

There's a new No. 1 in college basketball's latest AP Top 25 poll Monday, as Auburn has supplanted Tennessee at the top of the men's college basketball rankings. The Tigers ascended to the top of the rankings after No.

Five Auburn players scored in double figures and the host Tigers, the top-ranked team in the nation, survived their first test without their best player, Johni Broome, prevailing 88-66 over No. 15 Mississippi State on Tuesday.

This week’s War Rapport Wednesday is about the now #1 ranked team in the AP Top 25 Poll, the Auburn Men’s Basketball team. However, the injury bug showed no mercy as the Tigers superstar forward Johni Broome was injured in the Auburn’s road game against South Carolina.

Earlier in the week, while discussing Auburn, I explained why I think the Tigers deserve their No. 1 ranking but acknowledged I also find it hard to believe they're actually the best team in the country without the injured Johni Broome.
