From tip-off, it was clear that Texas A&M was in command. They ended the first half with a staggering 62 points against DePaul's 30. Their offensive execution was nearly flawless; they shot an impressive 53 percent from the field and an exceptional 45 percent from beyond the arc. The Aggies' defense also played a pivotal role by accumulating nine steals and two blocks throughout the game.


The second half saw no let-up from Texas A&M as they added another 27 points to seal their victory. Their ability to convert opportunities into points was evident as they scored 19 second-chance points and capitalized on turnovers by adding another 17 points off DePaul's mistakes. With such a high assists turnover ratio of five, it underscored their efficient ball movement and teamwork.


On individual performances, several players stood out for Texas A&M but without specific statistics mentioned for individual players; it is clear that this was a collective effort both offensively and defensively. The team’s rebounding efforts were notable too, grabbing a total of thirty rebounds – fourteen offensive boards contributing significantly to those second-chance opportunities.


DePaul Blue Demons did have moments where they shined despite being outplayed overall. They managed to shoot over fifty percent both from two-point range (58) and three-point range (50), which are commendable shooting percentages despite falling short on this occasion.


As fans look ahead after celebrating this commanding performance by Texas A&M Aggies at Reed Arena, attention turns towards future matchups. The next challenge for them will be against Memphis Tigers at home once again in Reed Arena on December 10th at four PM Central Time Zone (CT).
