How to watch Texas A&M vs. Penn State in 2023 March Madness first round
A pair of basketball programs make their return to the NCAA Tournament as the No. 7 Texas A&M Aggies (25-9) face the No. 10 Penn State Nittany Lions (22-13) in the first round of the Midwest Region.
The Nittany Lions are going dancing for the first time since 2011, while the Aggies last punched their ticket to the madness of March in 2018. The head-to-head features the runners-up in each of their respective conferences.
The Lions overcame a 17-point second-half deficit in the Big Ten final to make top-seeded Purdue sweat until the very final possession. Ultimately, Purdue’s Zach Edey tipped the inbound pass, leading to a turnover, and preserving a 67-65 win for the Boilermakers.
The Aggies, meanwhile, won 10 of their final 11 games in conference play to return to the SEC Championship game for the second-consecutive season, setting up a date versus top-seeded Alabama. The Maroon and White managed to keep the deficit within single digits despite shooting just 29.7% from the floor. A&M would go on to fall to the Crimson Tide 82-63.
