The Auburn Tigers have been on a roll lately, sporting a 22-2 overall record heading into Saturday’s game at Mizzou.
However, things have been tight the last few games, as Auburn has needed overtime to win 4 of its last 5 matchups.
Now, as the Tigers prepare to take on Mizzou, they’ll reportedly do so without a key freshman. Per a report from The Plainsman, Isaac Okoro, who hurt his hamstring against Alabama on Wednesday, didn’t make the trip to Columbia:

It’ll be tough for the Tigers to replace Okoro’s production. The talented freshman is averaging 13.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1 steal and 1 block per game.
Saturday’s Auburn-Mizzou game tips off at 6 p.m. Eastern time and can be seen on ESPN2. We’ll see if Auburn can continue to win without Okoro.
