At the half: The Tigers lead the Gamecocks 45-34. Missouri looked dominate offensively, and were fueled by Jeremiah Tilmon’s size down low and some hot shooting from Mark Smith from beyond the arc. The only downside to that half was Xavier Pinson going down. It was unclear what injury he sustained.
