The Tigers came back from a 10-0 run to start the game from Tennessee, and won a crucial game to nearly seal their spot in the NCAA Tournament. The 73-69 win over the No. 22 ranked Vols not only unlocked a bubble spot for Mizzou, but it also uncovered a lighting to pair with Mark Mitchell's thunder.
T.O. Barrett, who only recently took over the starting point guard role, dropped a career-high 28 points in the upset win. Mitchell came through with 23 points as well, as the dup combined to score 51 of the Tigers' 73 points.
