No. 15/16 University of Missouri men’s basketball led wire-to-wire on Wednesday night in picking up their third top-five win of the season, defeating No. 4/4 Alabama, 110-98, in front of a sold-out crowd at Mizzou Arena. MU improved to 20-6 with the victory and 9-4 against SEC foes, while the Crimson Tide dropped to 21-5 and 10-3 in league action. The Tigers now own three top-five wins for just the second time in school history – also accomplishing the feat in 1988-89 – and are one of two schools nationally this season with three top-five victories. Mizzou’s 110 points is its highest-scoring performance in a regulation conference game since Jan. 13, 1990, when it managed 111 versus Nebraska. MU also tallied 112 points in a Jan. 13, 2001 contest versus Iowa State, but needed four overtime to do so.
