There was dim light at the end of a tunnel heading into conference play, but any good feelings about Texas A&M basketball amidst its five-game winning streak have evaporated with a home loss to (then) 4-8 Texas Southern.
It should be noted Southern now has three road wins against Power 5 opponents, including over then No. 18 Oregon, and have some players from big schools who transferred their for various reasons.
But there is no reason the Aggies should have lost to them at home, and any momentum they had going into conference play now feels completely wiped out.
