Texas A&M surprised a lot of people this year, climbing into second place in the Big XII, entering the top 25, and beating respectable, if not stellar, opponents.

Last night Baylor flattened them. A&M star Atunrase scored 17, and the Aggies held Sophia Young to 16 (low for her), but the game became a rout in the first half. The defending national champs won by 25.

A school-record A&M crowd absorbed the loss. Coach Blair got ejected. He says he deserved the first T, but not the second, adding: "I was proud of our crowd. I'm just sorry we were not as good as our crowd... We're pretty realistic about who we are and what we need to do to get better."
