Study Hall: Alabama 90, Mizzou 64
For the range of outcomes when I saw this game on the schedule, even going back to the preseason, this was the one I felt was most likely. Maybe I didn’t expect it to play out exactly like it happened with the free throws and the outside shooting, but some version of: ‘close for the […]

An Alabama run late in the first half helps the Tide steamroll Mizzou 90-64
When Effie Trinket echoes the iconic phrase, “May the odds be ever in your favor!” in The Hunger Games, I don’t think she was speaking to Missouri basketball.

You know the saying in baseball? You can never have too many pitchers? Well, I feel that way about offensive linemen in football. You can never have too many. You can always throw another plate of beef on the grill. It’s just gonna add some more flavor to the party. Apologies if I’ve used this […]

Study Hall: Mizzou 88, Oklahoma 87
