Big news from the Lone Star State as Texas A&M and Texas will face off next season during the college basketball season.
While it’s not the Texas A&M, Texas matchup many of us are hoping for, it’s a start and rekindling the rivalry between the two schools.
The matchup was announced on Friday, with the two programs planning on meeting Dec. 8 in Dickies Arena in Fort Worth.
Hopefully, this will be the first of many matchups between the storied rivals and one day we can see the two meet on the gridiron on an annual basis.
