Junior Frankie Sullivan had a game he'd like to forget, against a team he'd like to forget. For the night Sullivan shot 3-16, including 2-9 on 2s (22%) and 1-7 on 3s (14%). This is the fourth game in a row that Auburn's 2nd leading scorer has failed to reach double digits. Since scoring a season high 22 against Long Beach State two days before Christmas, Sullivan has averaged 6.8 a game and has only converted 5-18 (27.8%) 2s and 3-13 (23.1%) 3s. In last year's FSU game Sullivan only scored 6 points on 2-7 shooting, and then missed the rest of the season following knee surgery. 2. In the first half Auburn made 5-33 shots (15.2%). This allowed FSU to take a 50-16 lead into the break. That's the fewest points Auburn has scored in a half all season, and the fewest since their memorable tilt with LSU last season when they opened the game with a a six-point half.
