I think I found the fix. I was rooting around on ftp.freebsd.org last
night and came accross the aic drivers in the src directory for
FreeBSD-STABLE. I noticed that the rev dates on the src I had on my
machine was different that that on freebsd.org. According to what I saw,
the last up date to the aic7xxx.c was 5 days ago. There was also a more
recent version of aic7870.c. So I grabbed these two and replaced the ones
I had, recompiled the kernel, and so far after 15 hours of uptime, no
reboots.

Here's what you'll need to do:

Replace /sys/pci/aic7870.c with:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable/src/sys/pci/aic7870.c

Replace /sys/i386/scsi/aic7xxx.x with:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable/src/sys/i386/scsi/aic7xxx.c

Recompile Kernel/install/reboot.

Thanks to Justin for the coding the fix :)
