Mizzou vs South Carolina Game Thread

WHO? Missouri Tigers (9-16, 2-10 in the SEC) vs South Carolina Gamecocks (21-4, 8-4 in the SEC) WHAT? SEC Basketball WHEN? Tuesday, February 16 2016 6:00 PM CST WHERE? Mizzou Arena Columbia, MO WHY? 2 for Tuesday? WATCH SEC Network/Watch ESPN ISTEN Tiger Radio Network Mike Kelly, Gary Link

Well Mizzou went and did it and got another conference victory this past Saturday after defeating the Tennessee Volunteers, meanwhile South Carolina is coming off a pantsing at home by the suddenly first place Kentucky Wildcats.

At this point in the season Mizzou is more than likely playing someone they've already seen and that is exactly the case with the Cocks. Mizzou last faced off with South Carolina on January 16th and lost in the other Columbia 81-72. In that game SC was coming off their first loss of the season, an at the time bad loss to Alabama, which all of a sudden doesn't look so bad. In that game Mizzou shot the ball very well but got murdered on the boards, and a late surge wasn't enough.

All that being said, can Mizzou win this game? Sure!

UPDATE:

Missouri has dismissed junior guard Wes Clark for academic reasons. He's the team's most experienced guard and leading scorer among guards
