How to Watch: Missouri vs Miami Basketball in the NCAA Tournament
When the bracket was dropped there seemed to be a lot of non-Mizzou fans up in arms about the Tigers being sent to St. Louis, a relative home game, when compared to some other teams. But the committee has long said it does its best to protect the top 4 seeds, and then after that […]

Championship Week Saturday Watch list
No Missouri is not playing. It’s been since 2023 when they last played on a Championship Week Saturday. Before that you have to go back to 2012. So Missouri has only played in the SEC Tournament Semi-Finals once. Might be time to change that up soon, Coach Gates? But the fun of the day isn’t […]
