Auburn women are SEC champions

There you have it.

Here is some reaction from the principles involved with today's big game.

NELL FORTNER, The Auburn Head Coach
On the seniors: "The most emotional thing for me today was that last timeout under the 4:00 mark at the end of the game. I was just sitting there looking at all them. It was very emotional. That's where it became very overwhelming to me of exactly what was going on. We're going to win this game and these seniors are going to go out having done that. They accomplished what we set out to accomplish … in one area. Now it's on to the next."

TOM COLLEN, The Arkansas Head Coach
On the Tigers: “I just think we ran into a buzz saw. They’re the SEC Champs. They deserve to be. They’re the best team in our conference right now and you’ve got to give them all the credit in the world.”

DEWANNA BONNER, The Auburn All-Conference Guard/Forward
On if Auburn is deserving of a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament: "I think it would be nice. If you win the SEC Tournament you don’t have to worry about being in somebody else’s hands. You can handle it yourself. But I don’t think it’s a must. I think we’re right there with Maryland, maybe."


WHITNEY BODDIE, The Auburn Point Guard
On how Auburn's win enhances the team's post-season worthiness: "It puts us in a good position because we're the No. 1 seed outright. It's going to be competitive no matter who we play, but we're not really worried about the competition. We're just trying to take care of business. We have bigger things to come. This is good for right now, today we're going to celebrate and do it big, but after that, it's over. We've got bigger things ahead of us."
