Five Thoughts: Texas A&M 81, Prairie View 59

1. Rebounding: If the rebounding doesn't improve, this A&M team will struggle throughout the entire conference schedule. Prairie View out-rebounded the Ags, 41-34, while also grabbing eight more offensive rebounds on the night. The Panthers missed 41 shots and, of those 41 failed attempts, they hustled for 24 offensive rebounds — giving them 24 extra chances at a basket.

That type of display on the glass is just good enough to get you beat against better competition.
