COLUMBIA, MO - FEBRUARY 18: Dexter Dennis #0 of the Texas A&M Aggies shoots over Tre Gomillion #2 of the Missouri Tigers during the first half at Mizzou Arena on February 18, 2023 in Columbia, Missouri. Texas A&M and Missouri were in a tight game late in the first half Saturday night in Mizzou Arena when A&M guard Dexter Dennis skied for a block of what appeared to be an easy layup on a fast break by the Tigers’ Sean East.
The Aggies, buoyed by a long-range 3-pointer by Wade Taylor IV at the halftime buzzer, led 39-25 at the break and were never seriously threatened the rest of the way in jetting to their fourth consecutive victory in Mizzou Arena, and in sweeping the regular season series from the Tigers and first-year coach Dennis Gates.
“There was a moment in time we had nearly as many turnovers as made shots,” A&M coach Buzz Williams said on his postgame radio show of the Aggies’ 13 early miscues. “When we didn’t turn it over, we did a lot of good things.” The Volunteers lost 66-54 at rising Kentucky on Saturday, after defeating top-ranked Alabama 68-59 on Wednesday in Knoxville. Barnes said he can’t explain his team’s inconsistency from game to game, and with the surging Aggies up next.Barnes added that he was disappointed with the Volunteers’ defensive effort against the Wildcats in the first half, when Tennessee trailed 39-19 over the first 20 minutes.
