The Missouri Tigers men's basketball program announced its opponent for the third annual ACC/SEC Challenge on Thursday. 

Dennis Gates and company will look to improve to 3-0 in ACC/SEC Challenge play when they take on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish Purcell Pavilion in South Bend, Indiana on Tuesday, December 2. 

Mizzou holds a 7-2 record all-time against Notre Dame and has won five of the last six meetings. In their last contest, then-No. 21 ranked Mizzou dominated the Notre Dame 87-58 in a CBE Classic semifinal on November 21, 2011 in Kansas City.

The two programs have met only three times in South Bend, with Mizzou only winning once. The Tigers lost their last meeting at Notre Dame, falling 77-73 during the 1993-'94 season. 

Mizzou is 2-0 all-time in ACC/SEC Challenge games, defeating Pittsburgh 71-64 during the 2023-'24 campaign, and California 98-93 last season. 

With the addition of the Notre Dame contest, Mizzou now has three confirmed non-conference games scheduled. The Tigers are slated to play Howard on Nov. 3 in Washington D.C. and rival Kansas on Dec. 7 at T-Mobile Stadium in Kansas City.
