My first thought is that watching Texas A&M play basketball causes me borderline physical pain. They're not all that good, but more than that they simply don't appear to care.

The Aggies in the first half:

Threw a pass into the seventh row
Shot a wide open three off the top of the backboard
Played a player who is (legitimately) the same height as I am
Turned the ball over two-and-a-half times as much as one of the most turnover prone teams in the country
Needed a three-pointer with two seconds left to average a point a minute

Missouri wasn't awful, but it wasn't good. Javon Pickett showed off the complete arsenal and scored ten points. Kevin Puryear had six rebounds. I liked the effort out of Reed Nikko mostly with six points, three rebounds and a block. Xavier Pinson gave us the customary Holy S--- pass (and it worked).

If Missouri gets to 55 it should win this game. A&M mostly got dominated by a Missouri team missing three of its four best players at the start of the season.
