Missouri women’s basketball upsets No. 5 Mississippi State 75-67 behind Sophie Cunningham

Robin Pingeton continues to break her own records.

After Missouri knocked off No. 10 Tennessee in Knoxville on Jan. 6, the Tigers (19-7, 8-4 SEC) upset No. 5 Mississippi State (22-2, 10-1 SEC) 75-67 in Starkville, Miss., for the biggest road win in program history. Sophie Cunningham led MU with 24 points in Thursday’s upset win.

“This train is moving,” Cunningham said to ESPN after the win.

The win snaps Mississippi State’s 12-game winning streak. And the Tigers are just the second team to beat the Bulldogs in the regular season in the last two years.
