Five Thoughts: Texas A&M 75, South Carolina 67

1. Let's start by mentioning how awesome the crowd was. And even though the Aggies found themselves down by 11 points early on, the students and the Corps of Cadets stayed involved and helped A&M to a victory. A win in front of 9,000+ fans may be a record for the basketball program in the last four years.

2. Shawn Smith patiently waited his turn. Against the Gamecocks his number was called and it was his time to shine.
