Johni Broome just went off for the Auburn Tigers.

Auburn basketball picked up a massive 81-66 win over South Carolina on Saturday afternoon, largely due in part to Broome's monster performance.

Broome finished with a season-high 27 points vs the Gamecocks. His career high is 32 vs Murray State in the OVC Tournament last season.

He shot 12-of-17 from the floor - his 12 field goals were the most he had made since that OVC tournament appearance (13). Broome also finished with 11 rebounds, a pair of blocks, a +16 +/- and only one foul.

Oh, and about a hundred lobs. Some of which weren't even to Broome - backup center Dylan Cardwell even got in the mix.

The 15-point Auburn victory featured domination in the paint - 47 points compared to South Carolina's 20. The dynamics of Auburn basketball have quickly shifted from a high speed, three-point shooting team to one that runs more of a grit and grind system that focuses more on defense and getting to the rim.

Here are some of the highlights of Broome's massive outing from Auburn's social media.
