Oklahoma's Last Stand - Looking At The Texas A&M Aggies


Oklahoma will say goodbye to three seniors this morning as Tony Crocker, Beau Gerber and Ryan Wright take the floor in the Lloyd Noble Center for the last time in a regular season game. Going out with a win over a Top 25 team would be a nice addition to their legacy but they're facing a Texas A&M team that's moving in the complete opposite direction. The Aggies have won seven of their last nine games while the Sooners have lost eight of their last nine.
