COLUMBIA, MO. • After each Missouri men’s basketball game we’re going to post a new feature, a quick look back at what unfolded on the court. The Tigers didn’t always look pretty in Tuesday’s 68-55 win over Central Arkansas but were never in serious danger of suffering the upset.
Only four times in 30 games last year at Illinois did Mark Smith connect on multiple 3-pointers. His single-game high was four 3s. He topped that by the opening minutes of the second half in his Mizzou debut, scoring 19 points on 5-of-8 shooting from behind the arc.
