Missouri is currently the 15th-ranked team in the country and tied for 4th in the SEC at 9-4. The Tigers are 17-1 at home and they welcome South Carolina who's 1-13 in SEC play and sit dead last in the standings. Their one win came in their last game so they're on a roll. But that just keeps my spread down for this game. Missouri's last home game was against Alabama who they beat 110-98. They beat Oklahoma in the home game before that, 82-58, as a 9.5-point favorite. That's kind of how I see the South Carolina game going tonight. Missouri covers.

Missouri was in an awful spot on Saturday when it traveled to Arkansas after blowing out Alabama at home. I played Arkansas, hoping to get the win then come back with Missouri on Tuesday trying for a little double bubble. Good teams rebound from losses by dominating inferior opponents, especially at home. The Tigers have been in this scenario five times and they responded by winning the next game at home on every occasion, winning by an average of 16 points. South Carolina has been dreadful on the road. They have just one true road win over Boston College. In SEC play, South Carolina is 0-7 away from homing, losing by an average of 18 points. Back the Tigers up to -14.
