The current betting odds have Missouri listed as a 2.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Missouri has looked really good in their games this season with their 17-5 record overall and their 6-3 conference record which has them right near the top of the SEC. They have looked great on their home court too with their 15-0 home record this season. Meanwhile, Texas A&M has looked really good in their games this season with their 17-5 record overall and their 6-3 conference record which has them right near the top of the SEC. They haven't been a great road team though with their 3-3 road record. They have won 2 games in a row now and are coming off a win over South Carolina on the road in their last one, but they struggled to win that game by 4 points. They have also played a really weak schedule lately with only 1 ranked opponent in their last 5 games, not really being tested since their double digit loss in Kentucky. Missouri is coming off a loss to Tennessee in their last one, but Tennessee has been a really tough place to play for teams this year and Missouri only lost that game by 4 points, still putting up 81 points. They have gone toe-to-toe with some really good teams lately too so they are going to be looking to bounce back from that loss. Missouri has the best home record in the SEC with the number of home games they have played this season, but they are still undefeated after 15 games and they have rolled a lot of conference opponents there too. Texas A&M has been getting by against weaker opponents lately but Missouri will send a message in this game. The best way to place a bet here is on Missouri to cover the spread in this game.

"Well, stereotypically, we don't even make nine in a game. I actually thought that both teams and their volume of threes in the first 10 minutes were unlike any game that either of us have had earlier in the season. I don't know what the total numbers were for the second half, but I thought that the second half was more probably how we need to play." - Buzz Williams after his team’s win against South Carolina in their last game. 

"Great matchup, a great game. I thought our guys came out the first half, executed the game plan. We minimized our mistakes on the road. I'm proud of our guys for doing that, I'm proud of our guys for stepping up.” - Dennis Gates after his team’s loss against Tennessee in their last game.
