The Auburn University basketball team continues to climb up the Associated Press top 25 college basketball poll, jumping from No. 25 last week to No. 16 this week.

Last week, the Tigers dominated Penn at home in Neville Arena by 20 points and handed Arkansas its worst-ever loss in Bud Walton Arena with a 32-point win.

Auburn hosts a Texas A&M team that has given the Tigers problems in recent years on Tuesday. The game will air on ESPN2 at 8 p.m.

LSU comes to Auburn on Saturday in a game that airs on SEC Network at 5 p.m.

Alabama continues to sit just outside of the top 25, receiving seven votes this week after a three-point win at Vanderbilt on Saturday.

The Crimson Tide host South Carolina on Tuesday at 6 p.m. and then travel to Mississippi State on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. SEC Network will carry both broadcasts.
