Junior forward Jordan Barnett is a man on a mission, and he continued to prove that Saturday afternoon.

Barnett had his second straight game of 23 points. Sophomore guard Terrence Phillips added 12 points and six rebounds and the Missouri Tigers cruised to a 72-52 victory over the Vanderbilt Commodores on Saturday afternoon at Mizzou Arena.

Mizzou (7-17, 2-10) picked up its second Southeastern Conference win of the season and largest conference win since Jan. 18, 2014 against Alabama, while Vanderbilt (12-13, 5-7) fell out of a tie for fifth in the SEC standings and saw its slim postseason tournament chances get even slimmer.
