On January 12th Mizzou marched into Fayetteville and were handed their worst loss of the Cuonzo Martin era. A 44 point humiliation in Bud Walton Arena. Nothing went right, and it was the culmination of a truly horrendous start to the season.
Since that game Missouri was playing at around a top 50 level. They were only 3-6, but it was clear the changes in approach were working. At least until last night.
Facing the Razorbacks last night, the results were... well, better, than they were the first time around. In game one it took the Razorbacks 8 and a half minutes to build a 21 point lead.
