The Arkansas Razorbacks triumphed over Missouri with a final score of 91-84, buoyed by Makhi Mitchell's 19 points and 14 rebounds, Tramon Mark's 22 points, and Jalen Graham's 13 points and 4 assists. Dominating the paint with a 56-30 advantage and leading 47-28 at halftime, Arkansas shot an impressive 59.4% from the field in the first half and remained in control despite Missouri's comeback attempt.
South Carolina is starting to hit 3s now, and it's a 20-point game with 7:05 left considering this was a 35-point game when the two teams met here last season, this will be a sign of improvement for Auburn — but this has been a tough second half for sure https://t.co/p42ViFHUuI
well, the patented South Carolina surge came a quarter later than usual tonight the Auburn women trail by 13 heading into the fourth, but they're on pace to hold the nation's best team to their worst offensive showing of the season
these Auburn women are fearless they trail No. 1 South Carolina by a single point at the end of the first quarter South Carolina is insane in the second quarter — outscoring opponents by 11.1 points this season — so the hosts will have to work hard to hang in there tonight
Final: Arkansas 91, Missouri 84 Makhi Mitchell 19/14 rebounds Tramon Mark 22 Jalen Graham 13/4 assists Hogs outscore the Tigers 56-30 in paint points. Score ends much closer than the actual game. Arkansas was in control from start-to-finish.
The Arkansas solution was letting Tramon Mark initiate the offense, and it's starting to pay dividends. A clutch basket and Mark will head to the FT line after the U4. Arkansas 77, Missouri 64 with 3:49 remaining. https://t.co/SA12jRTTbr
Missouri is chipping away. Hogs struggling with a shift in pick-and-roll coverage from the Tigers, who aren't paying any attention to the big man and sagging off the PG. Arkansas 71, Missouri 58 with 7:40 remaining.
Arkansas still up comfortably at 59-40, but Missouri is starting to get going offensively. Really bright start to the second half for Jalen Graham.
Real clunky basketball for Auburn on offense so far tonight. Tigers lead 24-15 at the under-4 timeout (3:43 1H).
Halftime: Arkansas 47, Missouri 28. What did we just watch? An impeccable half for the Hogs. Makhi Mitchell has 15/8 and Arkansas shot 59.4% from the field. Razorbacks scored 13 points off 9 Missouri turnovers. Best half of the entire SEC season.
Makhi Mitchell is playing fantastic, again. Light turned on Saturday against Kentucky and he's carried things over to today at Missouri. He's a presence inside on both ends, and the Hogs are up 25-12 midway through the 1H.
Tiger shooting just 8-23 (34.8%) from floor and 0-8 from 3. They've got eight more TOs (10) than they have assists (2). Jones leads way w/ 5 pts (2-6 FG) https://t.co/VbgcrJbvna
Mitchell’s one of the big winners so far through the first couple days. He’s been really good, answered some concerns about his game. https://t.co/Xn1PRbqUd0
