Missouri appears to break its three-game skid and return to the roadside winning column against a crippled South Carolina.

Second part notes

  • Xavier Pinson kept the score for Missouri at the opening of the second half
  • Missouri opened a little stagnant in the attack, with South Carolina reducing the lead to 10 points before the first break for the media
  • AJ Lawson found his deep strike to start the second, hitting some deep balls early
  • Javon Pickett adjusted something in his ankle, which ended up leaving him aside
  • Tilmon had a much better day at the charity strip and drained all seven free throws
  • This was undoubtedly Mark Smith’s best offensive game since late November.
  • The Tigers moved away near the middle of the race, extending the advantage to 20 points
  • Tilmon registered 17 points in 100% of field shots
  • The Tigers had 5 double-digit players
