For the first 35 minutes of Saturday morning’s contest, the Arizona Wildcats looked more than a step above the Texas A&M Aggies.
Arizona led by 20, behind excellent defense and an offense focused on finding their way to the hoop, ending up with a bucket or a shot at two free throws. A&M was listless, committing errors both forced and unforced.
Then, the universe shifted.
For over four minutes, the Wildcats did literally nothing right and everything was coming up A&M as the large lead was suddenly cut to just two.
Lucky for Arizona, the Aggies simply ran out of time after that 18-0 run.
