Texas A&M (19-7, 11-2 SEC) finished off their regular season series vs. Arkansas on Wednesday night, defeating the Razorbacks in the rematch 62-56 in a rock fight, as the Aggies only shot 35% from the field, defense, especially seldom used zone defense was the name of the game.
For the second game in a row, sophomore star guard Wade Taylor IV scored 18 points, while Dexter Dennis recorded a 14-point, 11-rebound double-double, and Tyrese “Boots” Radford added 12 points and 4-5 from the free throw line to propel the Aggies past a desperate Arkansas squad that fell to 6-7 in the SEC after the loss.
As I will remind readers time and time again this week, no matter what the Aggies have accomplished so far in the SEC with their 11-2 start, numerous “Bracket experts” will continue to only focus on the Aggie’s nonconference loss, which is of course fair game, but not the entire makeup of a team who’s in the midst of a 360-degree turnaround as the start of conference play.
After the game, USA TODAY Sports provided some best images from the matchup, and we’re here to give you a front-row seat and relive Texas A&M’s thrilling victory.
