Simpson shot 8 of 13 from the field and was 4 of 6 from 3-point range for Alabama A&M, which made 26 of 49 field goals (53.1 percent) and 7 of 17 from beyond the arc.

Kudus Ogbara added 10 points for the Bulldogs.

Donald Qualls, with 10 points, was the only player in double figures for the Tigers, who have lost seven straight.
