COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri’s 26-game home court winning streak came to an end Wednesday night. The unranked Georgia Bulldogs stunned the Tigers in overtime 70-64. Missouri trailed almost the entire night, but had a shot to win it in regulation.
Jordan Clarkson, who tied the game at 56-56 with less than a minute left, missed a step-back jumper as time expired. The Tigers led by five in OT, but the Bulldogs outscored them 12-1 the rest of the way.
Head Coach Frank Haith could tell before the game started that his Tigers thought they were going to have an easy night.
“I hate cool,” Frank Haith said. “We were really too cool and I don’t like cool. Cool gets you beat and cool got us beat tonight.”
Mizzou (12-2 overall / 0-1 in the SEC) plays at Auburn Saturday.
