COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Pierre Jackson hit a three-pointer with 17 seconds remaining to put No. 6 Baylor on top and added two free throws to give the Bears a 63-60 victory over Texas A&M on Wednesday night.

The Bears (20-2, 7-2 Big 12) were up by four points with five minutes left before A&M used a 9-3 run capped by a short jump shot by David Loubeau to take a 60-58 lead with 29 seconds remaining.

Jackson's second three of the game put the Bears on top before A&M's Elston Turner missed a three-pointer, forcing the Aggies (12-9, 3-6) to foul.

Jackson missed his first free-throw attempt, but was fouled again after the rebound and made the shots.

Texas A&M, missing two starters, got 16 points from Loubeau.

The win gives Baylor its first 7-2 conference start since 1968-69 and its fourth 20-win season in the past five. Baylor has won five straight over the Aggies in this rivalry played every year since 1930-31 but is in jeopardy with Texas A&M leaving for the Southeastern Conference.

Notes

• Charlie Spoonhour, the popular, homespun coach who put Missouri State on the map with five NCAA tournament appearances and led Saint Louis to three more with a mixture of sharpshooting and tenacious defense known as Spoonball, died Wednesday in Chapel Hill, N.C., after a two-year battle with a lung disease. He was 72.

In 19 seasons as a Division I head coach, the last three at UNLV from 2001 to 2004, Spoonhour compiled a record of 373-202.

• Sidiki Johnson will transfer from Arizona to Providence next season. Johnson, a 6-foot-9, 235-pound freshman forward, was suspended by Arizona coach Sean Miller on Nov. 21 for an undisclosed violation of team policy. Johnson left the Arizona program 13 days later.
