In Auburn's three games against team's ranked inside the KenPom top-10, Tahaad Pettiford is averaging 18 points per game on a true shooting of 71 percent. As a freshman, he has proven to be a big game player, which doesn't shock Bruce Pearl.

"He's kind of a Jersey point guard, if you will... They grew up fast. They played at Rucker Park. They've played in Jersey City. They've played in some tough neighborhoods. And so, therefore, they're just not afraid."
