@marchmadness  No. 15 Texas A&M extends its winning streak to 8 games and improves to 5-0 in SEC defeating Georgia, 79-45!

 

1st place in the SEC!   Next up Ben Simmons and LSU on Tuesday.  

Who's Ben Simmons?

Seriously doubt any of the freshmen will go pro after this season as their individual stats are not all that great - but next year who knows.

Daniel House is a Sr. and will be gone and Jalen Jones is also a Sr. both will be sorely missed unless another good recruiting class follows.

Completely agree.  Tyler could, I guess...he could also go undrafted if he did.  Would not be a wise move in any event IMO.  

A&M should be even better next year.  Youth a year more seasoned and bringing in one of the best PGs in the country in the '16 class.   They are way ahead of schedule of where I thought they'd be.  

[PhatMack19]

Hopefully he's ok

 

From Olin:
A&M freshman center Tyler Davis won't play against Missouri. He complained of discomfort in his foot this week. He'll sit out as a precaution. He's expected to be back in the lineup soon, perhaps as early as the Arkansas game on Wednesday.

The last time Texas A&M basketball lost a game, Kyle Allen and Kyler Murray were still Aggie football players.

[PhatMack19]

@GabeBock A&M basketball is 7-0 for the first time in league play since 1994 in the SWC. 66-53 win over Mizzou and 8th 20-point game for Jalen Jones.

 

2 game lead in the SEC!

Texas A&M is now ranked #5 in both polls

This is dumb.  Pay the man his money!

 

I heard at Saturday's game that Grant Betz,

, might not qualify for the prize because to be eligible the contestant had to be 4-5 years removed from organized basketball.
I find that strange since it would eliminate all students to compete other than grad students.
Betz, a freshman, played three seasons at Plano West along with current A&M men's basketball players Tyler Davis and D.J. Hogg. However, Betz averaged 1.1 points in 57 games. He's hardly LeBron James, and for that matter, I wonder how many shots it would take for LeBron to hit a half-court shot?
I'd think the odds of Betz hitting a half-court shot to be off the charts, maybe worth $5,000?

Meadowlark Lemon could have hit the half court shot several times in a row, but they should pay this kid.

11 turnovers in 10 min for A&M.  Not good

12 and Hogs shooting the 3 ball very well. Bad combination for Ags.

27-17 Arkansas, 6:41 1st half

[PhatMack19]

Arkansas leads 40-33 at half.  Sloppy 1st half for A&M

[AggiesAreWe]

Aggies take their first lead of game at 13:30 mark in 2nd half

47-46 A&M

[AggiesAreWe]

7:43 left

57-52 Arkansas

[PhatMack19]

Ags really struggling shooting the ball, but are only down 1 with 4:18 left
