It finally happened.

For the first time since Dec. 30, Mizzou men’s basketball won a game, this time with a 77-62 triumph over Howard. The result snapped a 20-game losing streak and gave MU its first victory of the 2024-25 campaign.

The Tigers decimated the Bison on the interior; they shot 15/18 on layups and got to the free throw line 31 times, with many of those instances stemming from rim attempts. Whether it was a point guard pushing the pace in transition or a big going to work in the low post, Mizzou was cooking bison meat from in-close.
