Missouri is 20-10 overall, 10-7 in the SEC, and 5th in the conference. After a loss to OU, the land themselves further on the bubble. An early SEC tournament loss can leave them missing the big dance. For More March Madness Betting Odds and Predictions, see the Full Hub".
Missouri is fighting for its season to continue and will be greatly on the back of Mark Mitchell. The Duke transfer is the guy for the Tigers. At roughly 17.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game, he leads the team in every major category. Can he lead them over the Razorbacks?
Arkansas is 22-8 overall, 12-5 in the SEC, 3rd in the conference, and #20 in the AP Poll. They are a lock for the tournament and should be around a #5 seed.
Darius Acuff has been unreal for the Razorbacks. The future lottery pick is averaging 22.2 points and 6.4 assists per game on 43.7% from three. After his 14-assist performance versus Texas, Head Coach Sean Miller stated Acuff is the best PG he has seen in his coaching career. Will Missouri be able to slow him down?
Arkansas vs Missouri will be a game full of firepower. Missouri can be a hard beat at home, and they have knocked off teams like Florida already. However, we think Acuff is playing at an All-American level right now. We believe that he will carry the Razorbacks to a win. Our pick is Arkansas ATS(-3.5).
