BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas The Texas A&M women's basketball team is set to face off against No. 1 South Carolina inside Reed Arena at 4 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 21. Fans are encouraged to wear white to Sunday's contest.

The Aggies (14-3, 2-2 SEC) are 11-0 at home this season behind their suffocating top-ranked defense. The Maroon & White has held two of its SEC opponents, Tennessee and Auburn, to their lowest scoring games of the season. Texas A&M is ranked No. 3 in the nation in field goal percentage defense (32.7%), No. 4 in scoring defense (51.5) and No. 3 in rebounds per game (47.29)

Endyia Rogers has led the way for the Aggie offense during conference play, averaging 18.0 points per contest in the four-game stretch. The Dallas native is also ranked No. 7 in the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio (3.1). Aicha Coulibaly has been the second leading scorer for the Maroon & White through SEC play (15.5 ppg) and is coming off a season-high 19-point performance in a 71-56 victory over Tennessee.

South Carolina (16-0, 4-0 SEC) is fresh off a dominant 98-36 victory over Kentucky. It leads the nation in scoring margin (38.9) and, just like the Aggies, boasts a top-ranked defense. The Gamecocks rank No. 1 in field goal percentage defense (29.3%), No. 1 in blocks per game (9.3) and No. 3 in scoring defense (51.4).

I was just about to post this.

Where's barker

Barker not on the bench today either. I'm sure we will get more information later.

Just got a little harder!

This might not be pretty.

Jones. Bad start.

Just horrific to start

This is just embarrassing.

Saidu''s first action outside of 4Q this year.

My main point was to not lose it in first Qtr. down by 17!

10-8 close to 1Q after being down 15-0

Not having Janiah hurts BAD… if we can settle down and NOT do dumb shots (where the SC player just picks the ball away!) we may get some points

Aggies in 1Q:
0-11 on 2's
2-8 on 3's

She probably would have fouled out by now. Probably wouldn't have mattered.

SC shooting 73%

KK green is completely lost

Everytime sc makes a bucket they stare down our bench. Ugh

I think the #1 ranking is definitely legit!

We were completely unprepared for this game. Tbh, we've said this before, but thank God for Ware, Rogers, and Coulibaly. They are giving all they can. Rogers is completely disgusted right now, you can tell.

Coach called zero timeouts. She's throwing this game and just wants to get it over with. Not interested in stopping runs. Disappointed to see that.

Maybe we can only lose by 20. This is like a football game where the score is 42-0 at halftime

I am concerned that Barker isn't in the bench tonight here at home given how bad news is often rolled out. Call it my Aggie BSC.

We could use some height.

Agreed. I can't figure it out. We are outmatched at every position!

Height out with injury Barker 6.4 Jada 6.3 Johnson 6.3

I'm not as concerned I think it's probably related to light and noise

70-32
