«Breaking News» Wiley, No. 9 Auburn rout Mississippi College 103-52

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) - Austin Wiley scored 18 points and No. 9 Auburn scored 35 consecutive points during a second-half stretch in a 103-52 victory over Mississippi College on Wednesday night.

Bryce Brown added 16 points for the Tigers (3-0), who went on a scoring tear of dunks, 3-pointers and fast-break baskets after the Division II Choctaws (1-2) briefly threatened to make it close.

Mississippi College cut a 25-point deficit down to 51-40 early in the second half.

Things got really ugly after that, though. Auburn reclaimed control emphatically with a closing 52-12 run that included a stretch when Mississippi College went more than 11 minutes without scoring

Six Auburn players scored in double figures. Horace Spencer had 14 points and 17 rebounds. Samir Doughty scored 13, Jared Harper 12 and Malik Dunbar 10.

The 6-foot-11 Wiley dominated a team that didn't have a starter taller than 6-5. He scored six straight points after coming off the bench in the first half, making 5 of 7 shots and 8 of 10 free-throw attempts. Wiley, who collected seven rebounds, had played only 13 minutes in the last game against Washington after missing the opener with a foot injury.

Brandon Boston led the Choctaws with nine points. Marcus Lytle and Donovan Ham each had eight. Lytle had seven quick points during the brief second-half rally.

Auburn jumped ahead 25-2 over the first 10 minutes, but Mississippi College answered with eight straight points.

Boston's off-balance 3-pointer at the buzzer cut it to 48-29 at halftime.

Auburn's Chuma Okeke, the reigning Southeastern Conference player of the week, didn't score in the first half. He had three points and seven rebounds.

BIG PICTURE

Mississippi College: Dropped its second straight to a team from Alabama, including an 88-84 overtime defeat to Talladega.

Auburn: Has just its third 3-0 start in the last 12 years, with three straight lopsided wins. Built the big lead despite mediocre shooting, going 4 of 18 from 3-point range in the first half.

THIRD MEETING

The two teams had played twice before, but it's been awhile. Mississippi College won 59-44 in 1939 and Auburn won 88-54 in 1981.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
