Bruce Pearl commits NSFW slip on TV after win over Ole Miss

Bruce Pearl has the utmost confidence in his Auburn guards to handle their business inside the paint, and the 11-year Tigers head coach isn’t afraid to let the world know it.

Following Friday’s 62-57 win over eighth-seeded Ole Miss in the quarterfinals of the 2025 SEC Tournament, Pearl dropped some rather explicit language while making that point on the ESPN set shortly after the game.

“The key to our 3-point line defense is I’ve got bigs that can get out and guard guards, and my guards aren’t p*ssies,” a hyped-up Pearl said live on the ESPN set from Bridestone Arena in Nashville. “They’re going to go down there and bang a little bit. (Laughter) … ESPN and Disney aren’t writing my checks right now, Auburn is, OK. So I can get away with that.”

This report will be updated.
