ATLANTA-- For the second time in program history, the Auburn Tigers have punched their ticket to the Final Four.

Behind a 25-point, 14-rebound effort from Johni Broome, Auburn on Sunday defeated Michigan State, 70-64, giving the program a South Region Title and a trip to the Final Four, where they'll face the Florida Gators in a rematch of a 90-81 loss.

As a result, social media erupted as the Tigers became the final team to advance past the Elite Eight joining fellow one-seeds Florida, Duke and Houston, which marks only the second time in NCAA history that all four one-seeds make it to the Final Four.
