Look, there’s no candy-coating this game. Missouri went on the road in a game against a team playing well, and they mailed it in. You could tell Cuonzo Martin was fuming after the game:
Cuonzo Martin not holding back: "Some guys didn't give it tonight. Some guys didn't show up."

and
Martin on Pinson: "He didn't attack the rim at all. When he's not aggressive we're stagnant."

Early on, Dru Smith seemed determined to keep Mizzou in the game despite Ole Miss shooting the ball unbelievably well.
