Heartbreak city. Everything Missouri (8-8, 0-2 SEC) had worked for 40-plus minutes was all for nothing as South Carolina (13-2, 1-1) stunned the Tigers with under 13 seconds to play in overtime.
Noah Carter knocked down a 3-pointer, tying the game up at 69 with over a minute to play, electrifying the 11,000-plus strong at Mizzou Arena that braved the harsh elements to attend the contest. But, with time ticking down, Gamecocks guard Jacobi Wright dribbled inside the paint, and with Connor Vanover’s hands in his face, he splashed a fadeaway jumper, putting the visitors from the other Columbia up two.
