Frankie Sullivan scored 24 points and Josh Wallace had a season-high 14 points in their final home game for the Tigers (9-21, 3-14), who became the first Auburn team to lose more than 20 games in a season.

Tennessee won despite missing 11 free throws - nine by Stokes - and allowing Auburn to shoot 50.9 percent from the field.
