Texas A&M basketball completes second half defensive shutdown against Bayou Bengals

It was already a historic day for Texas A&M basketball, as Wade Taylor IV officially cemented himself in Aggie history, becoming the school's all-time leading scorer.

It was only fitting that Taylor IV attempted a long range triple off an offensive rebound, as Taylor IV has lit up the court since day one in his Aggie uniform. It'll be sad to see him leave the Ags, but a career well done not just by skill, but by loyalty.

Following the record-breaking shot, the Aggies were slow to start, and it continued until halftime. It was the second half Aggies that broke through once again.

Aggies' electrifying second half silences LSU in regular season finale

LSU only had 20 points in the second half, and it was becoming pretty clear early that the Aggies had the momentum. It became apparent that the Tigers had lost all momentum after a CJ Wilcher three-pointer.

Andersson Garcia and Henry Coleman III did what they do best: rebound. They both had 10 rebounds on the day, and it was offensive rebounding that the Aggies took advantage of in the second half.

Again, as our good friend Jon Rothstein would say, this is a typical game of "Palpable Buzz Williams."

Typical Aggie basketball game right? Aggies struggle in the first half, followed by playing bully ball in the second along with grabbing rebounds and hitting shots. Before you know it, A&M has all the momentum.

Even though this was against LSU, who hasn't been good this year at all, this was an important game for the Aggies in terms of seeding. Pending a unspeakable collapse in the SEC tournament, a number three seed during the NCAA tournament is likely for the Aggies, and it shows that this win against LSU was still definitely worth something.
