Athens awaits Mizzou as Tigers take on upset-minded Georgia

The Mizzou basketball team will look to avenge the football team’s heartbreaking 26-22 loss to the Bulldogs in October. This time around, however, Missouri will be the favored team.

Mike White’s Georgia team has shown marked improvement over the course of this season, picking up wins over Kentucky, Notre Dame, Auburn, and Mississippi State en route to a 16-12 (6-9) record. While they are still well outside the tournament picture, the Bulldogs have a lot to play for in terms of SEC Tournament seeding.

The Tigers’ road woes have been well-documented this season. Mizzou is 2-5 on the road in conference play, and the offense has struggled mightily in every one of those losses.
