Auburn's Bruce Pearl disagrees with Chad Baker-Mazara's expulsion

While Auburn coach Bruce Pearl recognized that what Baker-Mazara did was wrong, he disagreed with the typification. According to him, the foul should have been a flagrant 1, not a 2.

Here's what he said during his postgame press conference:

"What he did was wrong, it should have been a flagrant 1, to remove him from the game after an entire season of work is something that — obviously going to disrupt us. He's one of our very best players. It was a retaliation. It was because he got hit in the throat on the play before. He shouldn't have retaliated."

Chad Baker-Mazara is in his fourth school in as many years, having started his college career with Duquesne, then transferred to San Diego State and again to Northwest Florida State College.
