Last night in a Big 12 Tournament quarterfinal that was a bucket of confetti away from a Globetrotters vs. Generals exhibition, Missouri dispatched Oklahoma State 88-70. It wasn't nearly as close as the score indicated.
In three games in the Sprint Center this season, the Tigers have outscored Notre Dame, Cal and OSU by an average of almost 29 points. Unless the semifinals are relocated, Missouri should feel confident in tonight's semifinal against Texas and its handful of fans.
Haith reminded the Tigers before the game how well they played here while winning the CBE Classic in November. The Tigers have five players from the Kansas City area — all from the Missouri side of the border — and last night Kim English declared himself an adopted son. "This is Kansas City, Missouri," said Marcus Denmon, one of the natives.
