Mizzou races past Minnesota in second half, wins 83-60

Sometimes, one small stretch of a game is so overwhelmingly one-sided that it determines the result of the full contest. That was the case Wednesday night in Columbia as Mizzou blew past Minnesota in the second half for an 83-60 win. The Tigers led by just two with 11:58 remaining in the second half after […]

No college team can do that sort of thing with a 3rd-string freshman quarterback and I went […]
