Texas A&M vs. Memphis Key Stats
The 6-3 Texas A&M Aggies are currently ranked 93rd out of 363 teams in the nation in scoring, averaging 77.0 points per game. They have been much worse defensively, however, as they rank 201st in scoring defense, allowing 69.3 points per game.

Texas A&M is coaching by Buzz Williams, who is in his fourth year leading the program. Williams spent the previous five seasons coaching the Virginia Tech Hokies. Prior to that, he spent six seasons leading the Marquette Golden Eagles and one season coaching the New Orleans Privateers. Their roster, which has three top-100 recruits, has three players scoring in double figures.
The 8-3 Memphis Tigers have been a middle-of-the-pack team on both sides of the ball. Memphis is currently 124th in scoring, averaging 75.6 points per game, and 148th in scoring defense, allowing 67.5 points per game. The Tigers' offensive rating, 105.3, ranks 168th in the nation, while their defensive rating, 94.1, ranks 99th.
Memphis is led by four-time NBA All-Star Anfernee 'Penny' Hardaway, who is now in his fifth year leading his alma mater. The Tigers have two top-100 recruits and are led by senior guard Kendric Davis, who is averaging 19.5 points per game, 4.0 rebounds per game, and 4.9 assists per game.
Texas A&M vs. Memphis Betting Prediction
The Memphis Tigers have played much better than their record this season. After a 2-2 start which included a six-point loss and a one-point loss, the Tigers rattled off eight straight wins which was capped off by defeating a previously unbeaten Auburn Tigers team.
They followed that performance by nearly defeating the Alabama Crimson Tide on the road, losing by just three points. Facing a Texas A&M Aggies team that is much less talented than their previous two SEC opponents, look for Memphis to win by at least seven points.
Pick: Memphis Tigers -6.5 (-110)
