SEC Basketball standings after Texas A&M’s 67-64 win over Missouri

Texas A&M (18-5, 7-3 SEC) will rise at least two spots in the AP and Coaches Poll Top 25 rankings this week after the Aggies defeated No. 15 Missouri 67-64 after star guard Wade Taylor IV drained a game-winning 3-pointer with just over two second left.

While Taylor’s 15 points and late-game heroics stand out, the play of forwards Pharrel Payne and Henry Coleman III kept the Aggies in the game late, especially after the Tigers went on a late 10-0 run, taking their first lead of the game with over six minutes remaining.

Payne led the game with 20 points, while Coleman’s career-high 16 rebounds kept Missouri from second-chance points, and Solomon Washington’s final rebound after Missouri guard Tamar Bates’ missed shot gave way to Taylor’s game-winner.

After defeating the Tigers, Texas A&M is 13th in the NET rankings for the first time in program history, including six wins over AP Top 25 teams. With eight regular season games, coach Buzz Williams’ squad is focused on earning a top 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Around the rest of the SEC, Florida’s road win over No. 1 Auburn was the most stunning result of the weekend, while every other favored team took care of business. Ahead of Week 15, here are the updated SEC standings after Texas A&M’s 67-64 win over Missouri:
