Johni Broome had game highs in scoring (21), rebounding (20) and assists (six) as No. 2 Auburn routed Ohio State 91-53 on Saturday in the Holiday Hoopsgiving in Atlanta.

Broome, among the leaders in the national player of the year conversation, got whatever he wanted as Ohio State was without 7-foot-1 center Aaron Bradshaw. Broome was the biggest reason the Tigers outscored the Buckeyes 38-20 in the paint and crushed them on the glass, 49-28.
