It’s really hard to win in Allen Fieldhouse.
In fact, it’s pretty danged hard to be competitive in a game at Allen Fieldhouse. That place, in the years since Bill Self has been running the professional organization some call a collegiate basketball team, is a place of nightmares. Under Self, Missouri has had five defeats of 21 points or more, 10 double digit losses, four single digit losses, and four wins. Yesterday marked the 20th game, so success against KU hasn’t been easy over the years. The worst loss over those years was 33 points. That game was the return trip to Lawrence after a Quin Snyder-less Mizzou team set Thomas Gardner loose in an overtime win in Columbia.
