Auburn hoops drama, cold shooting & big wins

Missing a team breakfast isn’t just a slap on the wrist at Auburn—just ask Kevin Overton! Elyjah Freeman got the start last night after some lineup shakeups, showing how quickly things can change. While the men’s basketball team is dominating in the paint, their 3-point shooting has been absolutely freezing—just 4-for-36 over the last two games. Meanwhile, the women’s team pulled off a huge upset over #21 Alabama, and Auburn Baseball is starting the year ranked Top 5. Who’s your pick for the next big Auburn sports moment? #Sports #Basketball #Auburn

Virginia Tech stuns UVA in triple OT thriller

Virginia Tech just pulled off one of the gutsiest wins in recent memory, taking down #21 Virginia 95-85 after three overtimes—despite missing three key players. Ben Hammond exploded for a career-high 30 points, while Amani Hansberry and Christian Gurdak both notched double-doubles. Coach Mike Young didn’t mince words postgame: “Great admiration for UVA, but dammit, I’ve got a good basketball team, too.” This kind of statement win could define the Hokies’ season and shake up the ACC race. What does this say about the team’s resilience—and how far do you think they can go this year? #Sports #VirginiaTech #Hokies
