A&M was ranked really high early on in the year. They had some injuries which is why they fell off in the rankings, but it seems they're pretty healthy again. They're riding a high, but I think our experience playing against Haas and Jackson helps us in playing them. As long as Wagner and Rahkman get back to form, I think we can beat them.

Announcers mentioned A&M was ranked as high as 5th at one point.

Hard to say how good A&M is and how off/ looking past them NC was. One thing with Beilein, we may still be off for the game, but no way we do the latter.

Fuck UNC. Legal loophole spared them from any NCAA sanctions. They should lose their university accreditation for offering fake classes that students actually pay for

portion of their training.  who'd a thunk it with the academic rigor they must withstand at that fine institution.  

not sorry for their demise, can't stand a decade of pure academic fraud.  good to see some humble pie handed to them.

As an impartial resident of Texas, I can say that the A&M fanbase is very similar to the Michigan State fanbase.

I have been a resident of Austin for years and have many Longhorn and Aggie friends.  I also have a son at College Station, a daughter who graduated from the University of Michigan, and a TCU grad.  Given the countless Big 12 games and campuses I have visiited, A&M is far more classy than Sparty.  Not even in the same zip code. A&M is actually closer to UM's fan base than UT, as Longhorn Nation disappears when the winning stops.  Now Texas Tech maybe ...

looked awesome today.  Blocked a ton of UNC shots in the portions I saw.  I expect Th night will be another one of those slogging games, my friends.  Fortunately, we have figured out how to win those . . .

hoping A&M's performance was partly due to matchup and partly due to hot shooting...

Michigan has been winning, but shoot like the last two games and i doubt they get by A&M...

A&M's big basically park in the paint, so Mo is going to have to shoot well in order to open things up a little for drives...

Can someone with more knowledge on A&M tell me how they are different than msu? I know they play 2 bigs and aren't great at 3 pt shooting, seems simular to sparty wo Bridges.
