Twitter reacts to Auburn’s big win over Arkansas
After a disappointing showing against Georgia on Wednesday, the No. 20 Auburn Tigers made a statement Saturday night, taking down the No. 13 Arkansas Razorbacks 72-59 in Neville Arena.
The Tiger’s offense came alive in front of their home crowd, shooting 43.6% from the field and leading Auburn to their 27th straight win at home. Nobody had a bigger bounceback than Wendell Grenn Jr who scored 10 points and shot 2-for-12 in Wednesday’s loss to Georgia.
He passed that total in the first half with 12 points and finished the game with 19 points. Just as important was his efficiency, he went 5-of-8 from the field and finished with just one turnover.
Allen Flannigan, an Arkansas native, had a monster night coming off the bench, scoring 18 points and grabbing eight rebounds.
Auburn improved to 12-3 overall and 2-1 in the SEC with the big win and the Auburn faithful took to Twitter to celebrate, here are the top reactions.

Really proud of the way Auburn played that 1st half, especially Wendell Green Jr. Wen might as well accept the fact that we are gonna go as far as he takes us. It’s good to see him get some confidence back

19 points and 8 rebounds from Allen Flannigan won us that game. MASSIVE win. One of Bruce’s biggest in a while considering the circumstances and what happened last game. We’ve got a long way to go but that was a big win https://t.co/XCliReDJkt
