The Texas A&M Aggies are set to host the SEC rival Arkansas Razorbacks in an NCAA college basketball game slated for 9 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Feb. 15.

Texas A&M aims to extend its winning streak to four games after notching a 74-62 win over LSU on Saturday. Meanwhile, Arkansas hopes to bounce back after a 7-64 loss to Mississippi State ended its own winning streak at three games.

Can Texas A&M remain hot in front of a raucous Reed Arena crowd? Or will Arkansas prove that it has what it takes to beat the Aggies for the second time this season?

Texas A&M vs Arkansas Prediction & Pick

Struggles on the road are a theme for Arkansas. The Razorbacks are an uninspiring 2-5 on the road this season, going 2-5 ATS in those contests as well. While they've won their last two away contests, they're going up against a Texas A&M team that has yet to lose at home to a fellow SEC program this season.

Reed Arena hasn't been a welcoming environment for Arkansas, which has lost six of its last eight trips to College Station. The Razorbacks only averaged 65.5 PPG in those games while losing by an average margin of 10 points. Considering how they only scored 64 points against Mississippi State, it's not out of the question that the Razorback will struggle to score again tonight.

With Texas A&M winning eight straight home games, I don't like Arkansas' chances of success following a loss. Motivated to win following last month's loss to the Razorbacks, expect the Aggies to impress with a strong effort tonight.

Final Score Prediction: Texas A&M: 74 | Arkansas: 68

Texas A&M vs Arkansas Best Bet

After Texas A&M and Arkansas combined for 151 points just over two weeks ago, I'm siding with the total going over 141.5 points tonight. High-scoring affairs have been the norm for these SEC rivals, who have hit the projected over in each of their last eight meetings.

With the Aggies and Razorbacks averaging 151.8 points in their last five clashes, I have even more confidence that backing the over is the right call.

Bet: Over 141.5 Points (-110)
