FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Missouri turned the ball over until it was game over.
The No. 15 Tigers were sloppy in the first half but led thanks to 3-point shooting, then continued to cough up the ball over and over again, leading to a 92-85 defeat to the Razorbacks.
By losing to Arkansas (16-11 overall, 5-9 Southeastern Conference), Mizzou (20-7, 9-5) slips to sixth in the conference standings — sitting on the wrong end of the tiebreaker with Tennessee and Texas A&M, both of which have beat MU.
Five Missouri players scored in double figures: Forward Mark Mitchell (17 points), guard Marques Warrick (16), guard Caleb Grill (13), point guard Tony Perkins (10) and forward Jacob Crews (10).
