COLLEGE STATION -- The Texas A&M men's basketball team returns to the Pacific Northwest after an unexpected 11-days rest between contests. This will be the Aggies' second trip of the non-conference season to the area, after an extended stay in Spokane and Vancouver just before the Thanksgiving holiday. A&M made it back-to-back victories in its last time out after earning a 21-point win, it's largest margin of the year, over Northwestern State at Reed Arena. Oregon State recently fell to St. Louis on Saturday night, snapping a three-game win streak.
