Quenton Jackson and Texas A&M kept the game close for 20 minutes, then made sure it didn't stay that way.

Jackson scored 28 points and Tyrece Radford had 22 to lead the resurgent Aggies to an 87-71 victory over No. 25 Alabama on Wednesday night.

Jackson had 15 points in the first 10 minutes of the second half to lead the Aggies (19-11, 8-9 Southeastern Conference) to their third straight win. The Crimson Tide (19-11, 9-8) were outscored 50-31 after taking a three-point lead into halftime in the team's home finale.

Jackson made 9 of 13 shots and all nine free-throw attempts. Radford did much of his damage with a 4-of-6 performance from 3-point range and had eight rebounds.
