Missouri returns home Saturday night to host Florida at Mizzou Arena in an SEC matchup under the lights in Columbia. Tipoff is set for 7:30, with television coverage on SEC Network.
The Tigers look to build momentum on their home floor as conference play continues. Missouri has been solid defensively in recent outings and will be tested by a Florida team that brings size and athleticism into the matchup. Controlling the tempo and taking care of the basketball will be key for the Tigers against a Gators squad that thrives in transition.
Florida enters the game looking to establish consistency in league play, while Missouri aims to protect its home court in front of the Mizzou Arena crowd. The Tigers’ ability to generate offense inside and get to the free-throw line could play a major role, while perimeter defense will be a focal point against Florida’s outside shooters.
Saturday’s game will be televised on SEC Network.
