The Aggies (22-1, 13-1 SEC) captured their first SEC regular-season championship, running past the league's highest profile team in South Carolina 65-57 on Sunday to earn the top seed and favorite's role in tournament that starts Wednesday in Greenville, S.C.
“When this year started, nobody gave us as much credit as a team you had to scheme for,” Texas A&M Gary Blair said. “All we are is just a basketball team.”
One that is ready to continue it's championship run after a very long pause.
The Aggies, only two years after a national championship in 2011, became the first team at their school to claim a SEC crown when they won the 2013 league tournament.
