Auburn student Ben Bode wins free tuition by making shots at halftime
Saturday’s game between Arkansas and Auburn turned into a life-changing moment for one Auburn student.
Junior Ben Bode had the opportunity to participate in a contest at halftime of the game and won it.
Bode made a layup, free throw, 3-pointer, and half-court shot in succession. The best part was he hit the half-courter granny style. Watch:
