For Texas A&M, it’s a rough loss as the Aggies hope to make the NCAA Tournament. With the loss, A&M falls to 27-21 overall and 10-15 in SEC play.

The Aggies started the 2025 season as preseason No. 1 in multiple polls, but stumbled out of the gate. A&M turned things around, picking up some key SEC series wins over the last few weeks, but still needs to win the majority of its 5 remaining conference games against Mizzou and Georgia for NCAA Tournament purposes.

For the first time in 2025, Mizzou will go for an SEC series win. Game 2 is set for 3 p.m. ET.
