The Texas A&M Aggies, similar to the No. 20 Missouri Tigers, are both looking to jump into college basketball’s elite and Southeastern Conference relevancy.
Under fourth-year head coach Buzz Williams, Texas A&M finally forced their way into the conversation last season when the Aggies surged through the latter portion of their schedule en route to an appearance in the SEC Tournament Championship Game.
Carrying that momentum and the frustration of not being selected to the NCAA Tournament, A&M cruised to the NIT Championship Game, where Xavier defeated them by a single point.
