Auburn Basketball Referees

I’m going to use this as a public database for referee assignments for Auburn basketball. Kenpom tracks game officials dating back to the start of the 2015/2016 season (With the lone exception of the Northwestern game from the 2022/2023 season. The names of the officials do not appear on the Auburn box score or the official NCAA box score. If you have a copy of this game where they list the officials, I’d love to complete my database). Shout out Kenpom, you should subscribe! It’s very cheap.

I’ll update this time permitting/upon request.

Starting with solo statistics:

Note: all data is current through Auburn’s 18th game of the 2024/2025 season (road win at Georgia)

Most Games:

Most Wins:

Best Winning Percentage (Minimum 11 games):

Best Record Against the Spread (Minimum 11 games):

I’ll bet you didn’t know it’d be Terry Oglesby at the top of this table.

Over/Under splits (Minimum 11 games):

Pair Statistics:

There is a rather large pool of officials the NCAA schedules for games. It may seem like we Auburn fans always get stuck with “the worst ones”, but it’s actually rather unlikely we see a pair of officials call the same game twice in one season.

There are (at the time this piece was originally written) 659 pairs of officials that have worked Auburn games together. Over a nearly 10 year period, only 162 of those pairs have worked together for more than one Auburn game.

In fact, these pairs of officials are the only ones who have worked 5 or more Auburn games together since the start of the 2015/2016 season:

Trio Statistics:

A pair of officials meeting up happens occasionally. All three officials working the same Auburn game? It’s only happened to five trios, and it has never happened more than twice.
