Auburn's championship season ends with NCAA Tournament loss to Yale


 You're absolutely right! Auburn's dream run for a national championship came to a surprising end in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Here's a breakdown of the upset:

  • Loss to Lower Seed: Fourth-seeded Auburn fell to 13th-seeded Yale with a final score of 78-76 on March 22nd, 2024, in Spokane, Washington [ESPN, CBS Sports].
  • Close Game: Despite leading by 10 points with under eight minutes to play, Auburn couldn't hold on as Yale went on a late scoring run [Auburn University Athletics].
  • Solid Performance by Auburn: Even in the loss, Auburn had a strong overall showing. All-American Johni Broome had a double-double, and the team shot over 50% from the field [Auburn University Athletics].
  • Yale's Upset: This victory for Yale is considered a major upset in the NCAA Tournament. The unheralded Bulldogs capitalized on Auburn's late-game struggles and secured a dramatic win [247 Sports].

This loss undoubtedly stings for Auburn after a successful season that included an SEC Tournament championship. However, it serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of March Madness.
