Want to a make a statement to improve your NCAA Tournament resume? How about another conference road win? With their third Quad 1 win of the season, Mizzou Basketball improved to 17-7 overall (7-4 SEC) on the season after an 86-85 win over Texas A&M on Wednesday night. Trent Pierce led the way with 23 points.

"We probably could have done a better job having some better patience around the rim," forward Mark Mitchell said.

Mere weeks ago, you may recall, the Mizzou men's basketball team absorbed a hideous and downright foreboding loss in St. Louis. The 91-48 shredding at the hands of Illinois was MU's third loss in five games and second blowout defeat in a rivalry game.
