What to Know
The Texas A&M Aggies and the Arkansas Razorbacks are set to square off in an SEC matchup at 1 p.m. ET Jan. 8 at Reed Arena. A&M should still be feeling good after a win, while Arkansas will be looking to get back in the win column.
The Aggies skirted by the Georgia Bulldogs 81-79 on Tuesday thanks to a clutch half-court bomb from guard Marcus Williams with 0:02 remaining. Texas A&M’s forward Henry Coleman III was one of the most active players for the team, picking up 23 points along with seven boards.
Speaking of close games: the Razorbacks entered their game against the Vanderbilt Commodores on Tuesday without any home losses — but there’s a first time for everything. Arkansas was just a bucket short of a victory and fell 75-74 to Vanderbilt. Arkansas didn’t live up to their potential and found themselves falling short of the 7.5-point advantage oddsmakers thought they had coming into the game. The losing side was boosted by guard Au’Diese Toney, who had 20 points.
The Aggies’ win brought them up to 12-2 while Arkansas’ defeat pulled them down to 10-4. A&M is 9-2 after wins this season, and Arkansas is 1-2 after losses.
