Auburn Coach Bruce Pearl Accidentally Punches Player in the Face on Sidelines

The Auburn Tigers got a better fight from head coach Bruce Pearl on Saturday night than they did from their opponent. 

During the conference contest between Auburn and the LSU Tigers, Pearl got a little too fired up while signaling to someone on the court. He didn't realize sophomore guard Jared Harper was next to him when he reached out and accidentally smacked Harper right in the face. 

Fortunately, Harper appeared to be OK, and Auburn cruised to a 95-70 win over LSU to improve to 19-2 (7-1 SEC) on the year.
