A little back and forth to start the game
Missouri and Kansas are tied at 20 lead with 6:36 left in the first half with the help of suffocating defense early on. The Tigers opened at 17-10 advantage making sure the Jayhawks were hounded on the offensive end, but now KU has regained some momentum to close the gap.
After starting hot offensively, MU missed some open shots to allow Kansas to come back.
Kansas is definitely using its size to its advantage, getting the basket and outrebounding Missouri 16-11.
