Despite Cinmeon Bowers' ninth double-double of the season, Auburn couldn't shake a cold shooting night as the Tigers were trounced at Georgia, 65-55, on Saturday.
With the news that starting point guard — and leading scorer — Kareem Canty would be suspended indefinitely coming less than half an hour before the tip, Auburn was forced to scramble to find offense.
As a result, Bowers was listed as the starting point guard against Georgia, and he poured in 12 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Tigers.
However, Auburn shot just 25.9 percent from the floor, and trailed by as much as 25 points before ending the game on a 21-6 run.
Auburn returns to action on Tuesday as the Tigers travel to Tennessee. The game will be televised on the SEC Network at 6 p.m.
