SEC-Leading Texas A&M Opens Pivotal Road Stretch at Georgia

Bucky McMillan’s up-tempo Aggies look to bolster their NCAA resume in Athens.

Overview

  • Texas A&M enters Saturday at 16-4 (6-1 SEC) in first place, visiting Georgia (16-5, 4-4) to start a tougher run of league games.
  • The Aggies report a full available roster for the trip, with transfer Mackenzie Mgbako still out for the season.
  • Under first-year coach Bucky McMillan, A&M plays a press-heavy, fast-paced style that averages about 92 points and leads the SEC in assists and forced turnovers.
  • Key drivers include 229 made threes, 38.6 bench points per game, and a 1.73 assist-to-turnover ratio, with Zach Clemence hitting 7 threes in the last win over South Carolina.
  • After Georgia, A&M visits No. 23 Alabama and hosts No. 19 Florida, and recent projections place the Aggies as an eight seed (ESPN) with near-100% at-large odds (Torvik).
