5 Thoughts: Texas A&M 75, Mississippi State 69

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

There was a five-game losing streak, and now there’s a two-game winning streak.

There was a 23-point Aggie lead, and then there was a Bulldog 33-13 run.

I could keep going with this basketball version of the Charles Dickens classic, but I’ll just cut to the chase and say Texas A&M found a way to win 75-69 with their proverbial backs against the wall and their 2024 NCAA Tournament hopes on the line.
