There’s no doubt that everyone within the Texas A&M program wanted to make the NCAA Tournament, but they’ve made the most of their snub, winning each of their four NIT games by 12 points or more en route to the championship game. I’m not here to overstate the significance of the NIT, but it’s safe to say that Buzz Williams has his team playing at a high level over the past six weeks, overcoming an excruciating eight-game losing streak earlier in the year to win 11 of their last 12 games, one game away from bringing home some hardware and creating some serious momentum heading into the 2022-23 season. Tonight’s version was a 76-52 dismantling of the Washington State Cougars, which saw Quentin Jackson lead the team with 18 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block (and what a block it was).

Prior to the NCAA Tournament selection show, Texas A&M looked like every bit of a tournament team. It’s hard to think about whether this team would have been able to compete for an NCAA Tournament Championship. They’ll never get the opportunity, so what’s the point? Instead, Aggie fans and the college football world will remember Buzz Williams’ squad for the fact that it was the biggest NCAA Tournament snub in America this year.
