After Tuesday night’s 81-70 win over South Carolina, Mizzou is now 9-2 overall and 3-2 in the SEC, currently all alone in fourth place in the conference. The Tigers have won back-to-back games and three out of their last four after the league opening loss to Tennessee. That re-match comes on Saturday night in Knoxville, a 7:30 p.m. CST tip-off on SEC Network — the start of a critical five-game stretch for Missouri’s season.
At No. 6 Tennessee, at Auburn (with Sharife Cooper), vs TCU in the Big 12/SEC Challenge, vs Kentucky, and vs No. 18 Alabama. Safe to say, we will know a lot more about this Mizzou team after this stretch.
