The two rivals put together three exciting matchups during their first season in the SEC together last year, starting with the conference opener against each other at Reed Arena in College Station, which saw Texas A&M win by a sound score of 80-60.
Their second matchup in Austin saw a lot more excitement build up as the Longhorns stormed back after being down by as much as 21 late in the first half and ended with Tramon Mark sinking what ended up being the game-winning layup with three seconds left, giving Texas the 70-69 victory.
The finale, which took place during the SEC Tournament, needed not one, but two overtimes to settle the score, and it saw the Longhorns take another win over Texas A&M, 94-89, allowing them to move on in the tournament.
