The Texas Longhorns will try to achieve their first Big 12 Conference road win of the season tonight when they visit Reed Arena in College Station to play the Texas A&M Aggies.

Sitting at 4-6 in the Big 12, the Longhorns have failed to convert a conference road game into a win. Not only that, but the Longhorns have won just a single true road game (UCLA, 69-59). At least Texas is coming off a strong win over Texas Tech, allowing for their momentum to potentially carry them over the Aggies.

The Longhorns aren't alone in tough times as the Aggies have struggled in the conference as well. They head into the new week with only three wins in 10 opportunities versus Big 12 foes. Their most recent Big 12 opponent, Kansas State, unloaded with a 64-52 decision. This means A&M has fallen in two straight and three of the last four games overall.

All things considered, the Longhorns and Aggies could provide for a second-rate, but exciting match up.

I have Texas coming out on top 73-65 in a shootout.
