Saturday morning’s Indy Classic was meant to be a neutral site game featuring No. 17 Texas A&M against No. 11 Purdue. However, it turned out otherwise. With Purdue located about an hour from Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the game was not just physical, but also hostile.
The Aggies were unfazed and shook off a sloppy first half where they committed several turnovers but still had a lead going into halftime. Out of the locker room, they seemed to have more intensity and were able to gain a sizeable lead that Purdue could not overcome with a final score of 70-66 for another Quad 1 win for A&M.
The Aggies are on a roll, having won five in a row. They started with a ranked Ohio State team, followed by wins over Creighton, Rutgers, Texas Tech, and now Purdue. When completely healthy, Texas A&M is a perfect 9-0 and could head into SEC play at 11-2 with a ton of momentum.
Below are some of the best photos from the game.
Texas A&M will return home to face Houston Christian at Reed Arena on Dec. 20 at 9:00 a.m. CST. The game can be watched on ESPN+/SECN+.
