5 Thoughts: Texas A&M 94, Louisiana State 91 (3OT)

An ugly win is better than an ugly loss.

In a thrilling, stressful and at some moments disgusting triple-overtime game, Texas A&M made enough plays late to pull out the Quad 1 win. They don’t ask how. They just ask how many, and the Maroon & White have 11 SEC wins on their way to finishing in a tie for fourth place and the No. 6 seed in Nashville. That was a culture-building win to punch the Aggies’ ticket to March Madness.
