Missouri Basketball will go searching for its first road win of the 2012-13 season as it travels to College Station, Texas, for a Thursday night game against former Big 12 foe, Texas A&M .

Missouri is 2-0 vs. the Aggies under Head Coach Frank Haith, winning both meetings last season, including a 71-62 win in College Station last year.

Haith had two stints as an assistant coach at Texas A&M (1992-95 and 1996-97) .

Aggie Head Coach Billy Kennedy also served on Haith’s staff at Miami from 2005-06 before taking over at Murray State the following season.


The tigers have just one player, Phil Pressey, who played in those two meetings season last season .

Pressey is the lone Tiger ever to play a complete season for Haith and if you break down the numbers Missouri is getting 84.0 percent of its scoring and 92.6 percent of its rebounding from Tigers that did not play at Mizzou one season ago.
