The Ags would play their second game in as many days, while #3 seed Missouri came to Greenville rested and on a 5 game win streak.
First quarter
The game tipped off a few minutes earlier than I (and my DVR) expected and Mizzou was already up 3-0 when I turned it on. 3 different Tigers hit 3s early, forcing Coach Blair to use a timeout. The Ags switched to a man to man defense but struggled to score as Missouri sagged off and dared Anriel to score. The Ags had Mizzou stuck on 11 points for a long stretch is the middle of the period, but a late burst got the lead back to 9.
