AU puts on hitting clinic in sweep
Matt Smith’s face said it all on Saturday.
Following No. 16 Auburn’s 11-1 victory at Oxford-University Stadium that wrapped up a three-game sweep of No. 17 Ole Miss, the normally jovial Smith looked like he — and the rest of the Rebels — had just been put through the wringer.

We just didn’t hit, that’s the bottom line.” (May 24, 2010, Page 1B)
