It's time for the game nobody asked for, a revival of the Border War with Missouri. Today the Jayhawks take on a Mizzou team that is struggling, to say the least. When I first started reviewing their shooting numbers I thought it had to be a misprint. There's no way they're really shooting 24% (yes, that's twenty four percent!) from three, right?
As it turns out, yes, that's a correct number. Mizzou attempts threes on roughly just a third of their shots, and somehow they're making less than a quarter of them through nine games. Only five teams in all of D1 basketball are shooting any worse.
