Jimmy Fallon gave a special shoutout to the Auburn Tigers this week during one of the latest episodes of “The Tonight Show” on NBC.

Following the Tigers dramatic run to the 2019 SEC Tournament championship, even the late night show host was interested in talking about Bruce Pearl’s squad. Of course, the local CBS affiliate down in Alabama honoring Auburn as “Sex Tournament” champions after winning the league title in Nashville was what likely really caught Fallon’s attention.

After showing the error by the Alabama CBS station, “The Tonight Show” host offered up this quip.

“On the bright side, Auburn has never gotten so many college applications,” Fallon said.
