Losing to Kansas in the Border War wasn’t just another tough night for Mizzou basketball—it’s made the upcoming Braggin’ Rights game against Illinois absolutely critical. With injuries thinning the roster and the offense struggling to find rhythm, the Tigers now have their backs against the wall. The Dec. 22 matchup in St. Louis isn’t just about rivalry bragging rights anymore; it’s a chance to prove this team can bounce back and set the tone for SEC play. What do you think Mizzou needs to change to turn things around? #Sports #MizzouBasketball #BorderWar
