WATCH: Shaquille O’Neal gives Charles Barkley a blunt reminder of Auburn’s blown lead

The remarkable comeback by LSU against Auburn over the weekend has definitely sent waves through the fan base of both schools.

The LSU Tigers have rebounded under head coach Ed Orgeron after a scary start to the season. The Tigers are now up to 5-2 on the season after beating Auburn and are back inside the AP Top 25 with a No. 24 ranking.

The loss in brutal fashion by Auburn has sent the Tigers into a bit of a tailspin. Auburn fell from No. 10 to No. 21 in the AP Poll, and the blown lead has put head coach Gus Malzahn back on the hot seat.

LSU fans are riding high while Auburn fans are searching for answers. Former LSU basketball star Shaquille O’Neal even  made sure to remind former Auburn basketball star Charles Barkley about the blown lead during a recent segment on TNT.

Here is video of the exchange shared to Twitter by @benandmisty:

O’Neal played at LSU from 1989-92 and Barkley played at Auburn from 1981-84. Both players had remarkable NBA careers and are members of the Basketball Hall of Fame. Both serve as analysts on TNT’s “Inside the NBA.”
