Texas A&M erased a 12-point deficit in the span of 35 seconds on Sunday to top Northern Iowa and advance to the Sweet 16.

Down 69–57, the Aggies scored a pair of quick layups, hit a three, and scored off of three steals all while allowing just one basket. They also got help from a blocking call on UNI.

The No. 3 Aggies will face the No. 2 Oklahoma Sooners in Anaheim on March 26 in the Sweet 16.
