Five topics from columnist Ben Frederickson that Mizzou fans will be discussing:
1. Stopping Maten was no small task
What if I told you back in October, when the SEC announced its preseason co-players of the year, that Georgia's co-winner would score nine more points and grab two more rebounds than Mizzou's co-winner when the Bulldogs and Tigers first clashed in Columbia?
You probably would have assumed that Georgia's star senior forward Yante Maten got the best of Mizzou's star freshman forward Michael Porter Jr., and that the Tigers lost a home game.
Well, Maten did score nine more points and grab two more rebounds than MPJ on Wednesday night at Mizzou Arena.
