McBride Homes Braggin’ Rights Set for Dec. 22

ST. LOUIS, Mo. – The 2022 edition of Braggin’ Rights between the University of Missouri men’s basketball team and Illinois is slated for Dec. 22, 2022. The two teams will face off against each other in the annual matchup in the Enterprise Center.

Game time, television details and ticket information will be available at a later date.

2022 will mark the 53^rd all-time meeting between the two programs, as Illinois leads the all-time series 33-19. Mizzou has won three of the last four meetings, however, the Illini took last season’s matchup, 88-63. The event returned to St. Louis in 2021 after being held on a campus site in 2020 for the first time in over 40 years.

Dennis Gates enters his first season at the helm of the Mizzou program after being hired this past spring. Gates takes over as the 20^th head coach in school history following a successful three seasons at Cleveland State where he led the Vikings to back-to-back conference championships and postseason appearances. The Tigers return All-SEC performer, Kobe Brown to the 2022-23 roster while welcoming 12 newcomers.

Illinois earned a share of the regular season Big 10 title in 2022 and earned a four-seed in the NCAA tournament. The Illini lose a first team All-American from last season in Kofi Cockburn, but bring in a talented trio of transfers in Dain Dinja, Matthew Mayer and Terrence Shannon Jr.
