COLUMBIA, Mo. — The tag team of Mark Mitchell and Caleb Grill powered a triple-digit offensive showing as No. 15 Missouri toppled No. 4 Alabama in a shootout.
The Tigers (20-6, 9-4 Southeastern Conference) beat the Crimson Tide (21-5, 10-3) 110-98 Wednesday in front of a sold-out crowd, gaining ground in the race for a top-four finish in the SEC.
One week after setting his career-high against Oklahoma, Mitchell was once again a dominant offensive force and set a new mark to beat of 31 points. Guard Caleb Grill added 25 points, all but 10 of which came in the second half to stave off any Alabama hopes of a comeback.
