Talk about no respect...they're the Rodney Dangerfields of college hoops! That would be Bucky McMillan's Texas A&M, which might be the first SEC leader in February to not be ranked by one of the two major polls. "Bucky Ball" however has became the rage as the Ags continue to win and score up a storm (almost 92 ppg) as Bucky's far-flung collection of transfers have meshed into quite a scoring machine and have coped effectively with the season-ending foot injury to valued Indiana transfer F Mackenzie Mgbako, as ex-USC and elsewhere G Rashaun Agee (14 ppg) has emerged as the main threat. Meanwhile Bama is beginning to look like the nation's biggest disappointment as the once-top ten Tide have dropped from the rankings. Play A&M

Alabama just got blown out at Florida, but I think it’s a good time to buy low on the Crimson Tide. Alabama struggles against Florida and Tennessee because those two teams kill them on the boards. The Tide are 0-10 in their last 10 games against those two teams. That won’t be a problem on Wednesday because Texas A&M lacks size and is one of the worst rebounding teams in the SEC. The Aggies can’t exploit Alabama’s biggest weakness. The Tide have also played a much harder SEC schedule up to this point. Texas A&M’s toughest stretch is coming up with games against Alabama, Florida, Vanderbilt and Arkansas in February. I'll back Bama in a bounce back spot at home. Bet up to -6.5.
