Alex Robinson and Davonte Fitzgerald hit back-to-back 3-pointers to briefly put the Aggies back in front, starting a four-minute span where the teams combined for 7-of-9 3-pointers that ended with Cooper's shot from behind the line for a 57-56 Alabama advantage. Jones and Roberson had back-to-back buckets to put the Aggies ahead with 2 1/2 left but they didn't score again and Obasohan's driving layup with 90 seconds left was the difference.
