Despite a lot of offense leaving, Mizzou fans think the Tigers are still a borderline Top 25 team.
For this week’s Reacts, we wanted to ask the fans out there a simple question: Where should Mizzou Basketball rank in the national conversation?
The Tigers have been a fringe Top 25 pick for some national writers, but the skepticism around their offense — they are losing their two best pure scorers and shooters, after all — has led most analysts to leave them on the outside looking in.
The fans, though? They’re true blue black and gold. They have faith that the Tigers are still worthy of being in the conversation with the rest of the country’s best teams.
That’s where I voted, if I’m being transparent. I think the Tigers’ transfer portal period left a little something to be desired, but I think there are a lot of exciting young pieces on this team that should pop and complement the returning stars in Mark Mitchell and Anthony Robinson II.
Think you’ve got the inside beat on how Mizzou will start the year? End the year? Are you 1000 percent confident that the Tigers are taking home the natty this year? Put some cheddar on it at FanDuel.
