Penn State poured it on against Texas A&M in a mild upset late Thursday night.
Penn State's Seth Lundy shoots past Texas A&M's Wade Taylor IV during the first half of a first-round college basketball game in the NCAA Tournament Thursday, March 16, 2023, in Des Moines, Iowa. DES MOINES, Iowa — Texas A&M’s goal of playing 100 miles from campus in the Final Four in Houston fell nearly 1,000 miles short on a bitter cold, slushy night in the Midwest.
Tenth-seeded Penn State poured it on against seventh-seeded A&M 76-59 in a mild upset late Thursday night, although the Nittany Lions appeared to be the better team throughout the two anguishing hours for A&M fans. The Aggies, who narrowly missed the NCAA Tournament last year before barely losing to Xavier in the National Invitation Tournament title game, had designs on ending their season with a happy bus ride to Houston for the Final Four in NRG Stadium in early April.
The Aggies in nonconference play lost to Wofford in Reed Arena in December, and that head-scratching version of A&M reared its head on college basketball’s brightest stage.
