#16 Texas A&M (20-5) @ #11 Texas (21-4)
9:00 PM ET
The premiere match up in College Basketball Monday night comes between two of the toughest teams in the Big 12. Texas is the obvious favorite as they have the home hardwood, but statistically Texas A&M is actually the better team. In fact, the Aggies destroyed the Longhorns earlier this year at A&M 80-63. There’s a very consistent trend in the series between these two teams and that is that the home team always seems to win and, in most cases, win big. The last time a road team won in this rivalry was in 2004 and these teams have played 9 games since with all 9 going to the home squad. Who are we to defy history and fate? You have to like the Longhorns in this situation. They are still one of my favorites for at least the Sweet 16 in the tournament and a win here only helps to solidify a great seed in the tourny and as one of the dominant teams in the Big 12.
