Oklahoma's Tournament Hopes on the Line vs Texas A&M

0:00On March 12th, Oklahoma's men's basketball team kept their postseason hopes alive with a win over South Carolina in the SEC tournament opener. Now the Suners, sitting at 18 wins and 14 losses, face Texas A&M tonight in the second round at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. The Suners have won seven of their last nine games, boosting their defense and getting big performances from players like Nigel Pack and Darian. That momentum has put Coach Porter-Mozor Squad right on the NCAA tournament bubble heading into Selection Sunday. Meanwhile, Texas A&M enters with a strong 21 wins and 10 losses. In their first year under Bucky McMillan, the Aggies tied for fourth in the SEC by winning 11 of 18 conference games and they look safely. Locked into the postseason field, Oklahoma leads the all-time series 32-14, but Texas A&M took both meetings this season, including a 75-71. Victory in Norman, the Suners' last loss before their current five-game win streak.

1:03A win tonight could set up a quarter-final clash with third-seeded Arkansas that might clinch an NCAA bid. Tip-off is around 8.30 pm. Central time on the SEC network with Tom Hart and Dane Bradshaw on the call. One more strong showing and Oklahoma's tournament dreams could turn into reality.
