Five Thoughts: Texas A&M 74, Mississippi State 70

1. A win is a win: It wasn't pretty and it wasn't very exciting, but A&M came away with its first conference win of the season. The first half saw limited outputs by both teams, with the score after the first period ended with a 28-27 Mississippi State lead. During the second half each team produced almost twice the offense as the game ended at 74-70 in favor of the Aggies.

Again, it wasn't pretty but A&M got a much-needed win heading into Baton Rouge for Saturday's matchup against LSU.
