On March 15, the Texas A&M Aggies basketball team drew a 10th seed in the South region of the NCAA tournament. They'll take on the seven-seated St. Mary's Gales on Thursday and Oklahoma City. The winner advances to face either 2nd-seated Houston or 15th-seated Idaho the following Saturday. Projections leading into Selection Sunday lined up almost perfectly, with the Aggies averaging a 9.91 seed across more than 1. 100 bracket forecasts. Under first year head coach Buckoming Millen, the team finished 21 wins and 11 losses overall, including 11 and 7 in Southeastern. Conference play. They ended up sixth in the regular season standings, but struggled lately, dropping seven of their final 11 games. Fans and players are buzzing about this chance to build on their 18th all-time tournament trip, which marks the fourth year in a row. The Aggies haven't reached the second weekend since the sweet 16 back in 2018, and they've never made it to the Elite 8. All eyes now turn to Oklahoma City, where the Aggies hope to shake off their recent skid and make some March Magic happen.
