A Blog for Ol' Mizzou
It’s a dumb system, let me explain why I think so. Let’s talk about UConn, one of the teams with a track to possibly land an overall one seed in the NCAA Tournament. They’re 24-3, and fell to 10th in the NET after a recent home loss to Creighton. The Blue Jays are 73rd in […]
Mizzou women’s basketball went through an unexpected loss Thursday, falling to Auburn at home 71-58. Head coach Kellie Harper’s team fell behind in the first minute and never found the lead. Auburn led 18-8 after the first quarter and held that double-digit lead for most of the contest. The difference was simply a measure of […]
If anyone forgot, Missouri won a basketball game against a team with the second best NET rating in the conference. Vanderbilt is rated 15th in the NET as of this morning, and now Mizzou has pulled wins against the two top teams in the NET in the SEC at home. This game was probably their […]
The culmination of the regular season is at the doorstep for No. 14 Tiger Style. With a win against No. 16 Oklahoma on Feb. 12, Mizzou advanced to 12-7 overall and 5-2 in conference duals. It was won in blowout fashion – a 23-14 final score – spearheaded by a sweep from the 149lbs to […]
After a disappointing loss on the road at Tennessee, Kellie Harper and Mizzou women’s basketball takes on a pair of fellow Tigers as they look to get back in the win column. That starts with a home showdown against Auburn on Thursday, before heading to Baton Rouge to play LSU on Sunday. Here’s what there […]
No position group on Mizzou’s roster experienced more upheaval this offseason than wide receiver. Starters graduated, bound for the NFL, veterans transferred with eligibility remaining and a room that was already inconsistent in 2025 is now almost entirely rebuilt. The Tigers coaching staff responded to the turnover with a mix of proven portal additions and […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Hoops Well … say whatever you want about how that game unfolded — but Mizzou Basketball …. survived in a much-needed 81-80 win over No. 19 Vanderbilt on Wednesday night. At the end of the night, it will go down as a win on the […]
With 16 minutes to go in the second half, Trent Pierce drilled a three-pointer that had Mizzou Arena on its feet Wednesday night. It extended a Tiger lead to 11 points and they never looked back, minus a rocky final two minutes, of course. The team pushed an 81-80 win and sent the top-20 Commodores […]

In freshman JD Dohrmann’s dominant five inning start, the Tiger bats and bullpen were not able to hold up their end of the bargain in Missouri’s 4-2 loss to Florida Atlantic Tuesday evening. Tigers Game Recap The Tigers had a scoreless first, second and third inning, as Dohrmann struck out four batters, including Nick Romano […]
At first, the substitution didn’t seem like a big deal. Anthony Robinson II stood at the free-throw line, hoping to finish a four-point play after Texas’ Chendall Weaver fouled him on a clumsy closeout. Robinson’s step-back three had just nudged Missouri ahead by one with 1:35 left in the half, and Missouri coach Dennis Gates […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we are talking about Mizzou Basketball. After a tough loss to Texas over the weekend at Mizzou Arena, Mizzou Basketball stays in CoMo to take on ranked Vanderbilt in a game the Tigers could really use to keep their tournament hopes alive. Mizzou took care of business on the […]
Dear Readers, forgive me if I’m showing my age a bit here, but this gif, from the absolute CLASSIC 1999 movie 10 Things I Hate About You, is what came to mind watching Mizzou Gymnastics’ meet on what almost was a very unlucky Friday the 13th evening. Like Chastity Church, played by the un-aging Gabrielle […]
Welcome to Larissa’s Lessons, a weekly takeaways series in which some combination of Karen, True and Dylan will break down the biggest takeaways from the weekend’s games. We love an alliteration and puns around here, so be prepared for some word play. Because the Tigers are playing a ridiculous number of games in a weekend […]

A recap of the Tigers’ eventful 3-game set down in Florida Missouri leaves Fort Myers 2-1 in its clash against Mount Saint Mary’s from the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, and if the opening series felt a little bit chaotic, that’s because it is. Sometimes February baseball is similar to a pilot episode of a tv […]
During the season I did a statistical breakdown of both the offense and the defense as they headed into each bye week. You can read the 2nd Bye Week installment of the defense here and there’s a link to the offensive profile in there as well. I figured it would be a good idea to go […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Hoops Mizzou Basketball had a golden opportunity on Saturday night vs Texas to improve their bubble status, but an 85-68 loss to the Longhorns has the Tigers currently outside of the NCAA Tournament picture. ESPN’s Joe Lunardi and Bracketeer’s Rocco Miller have Mizzou as the […]
Talk about disappointing. The score was tied at 41 with 14:39 left in the second half. The game had been sluggish with both teams not shooting the ball all that well from the field. But in the remaining 14 plus minutes Texas scored 44 points, including 14 from the free throw line. In turn Mizzou […]
This week’s column entirely focuses on men’s basketball. On Saturday, the Tigers fell to Texas 85-68 at Mizzou Arena, marking the team’s second home loss this season. Here are the photos of the week. I hadn’t initially planned to get a photo of Annor Boateng at this game. It just so happened that he was […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about the return of the Mizzou diamond sports. And for one team, it was record-breaking! Let’s start with Larissa Anderson’s softball Tigers, whose uneven start to the year added an early statement win over No. 22/19 Duke: The win could not have come at a better time […]
Two outs. Bottom of the seventh. Bases loaded. For two-way freshman Abby Carr, Sunday’s Shriners Children’s Clearwater Invitational finale was a trial by fire. Facing a strong No. 19 Duke offense, Carr found the perfect pitch to force a game-ending flyout, preserving a 5-4 win and punctuating a massive comeback win for Mizzou Softball. Things […]
If you watched the Mizzou Basketball game last night, you likely experienced frustration, fatigue, maybe some acid reflux. There might be some more symptoms you experienced, maybe some lower limb loss, constipation, I don’t know, I feel like I’ve seen too many prescription medication ads on TV lately. I don’t know that Skyrizi exists for […]
Following three straight wins, Missouri men’s basketball entered Saturday night with a chance to move solidly onto the right side of the bubble for the first time this calendar year. The Tigers seem destined to stay on the edge of the NCAA Tournament conversation for now, though, after falling to Texas 85-68 in Columbia. MU […]
