Josh Reaves - Penn State

Reaves only hit 4-of-10 shots but he scored nine points and had six rebounds and three assists in a losing effort.

Penn State came so close to a really good win at Alabama. I think it's reasonable to say that's one of three Big Ten teams with very little shot to make the Big Dance.

Trent Buttrick - Penn State

Coming off the bench, Buttrick couldn't lead the Nittany Lions to a comeback victory but he did hit all five of his shots while going 3-for-3 from three-point land. He ended up with 13 points and four rebounds.

When Alabama was down 14, I didn’t expect a comfortable win over Penn State. Nice comeback. #RollTide

Go watch some great hoops Saturday.

Auburn at home vs future NBA Star Ja Morant, worth the trip. #WarEagle

Enjoy your weekend!
