Mizzou torches the nets to beat Alabama

While a suite spread smoke through the Missouri Tigers’ home after the game (it was put out quickly after and no injuries were reported), the No. 15 Tigers were scorching the nets all night to take a 110-98 win against the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide, giving Missouri its third win against a top-5 opponent this season. “You score 110 points in a game, no overtime, it says we’re continuing to take the steps we need to take, one at a time,” Missouri coach Dennis Gates said. The Tigers shot 60.3 percent from the field (35-of-58) and 39.1 percent from 3 (9-of-23) while connecting on 31-of-47you free throws.
