The Missouri Tigers will open their third week of the season Monday by hosting Prairie View A&M from the SWAC, the first of three opponents from the conference that Missouri will host this season.
Missouri is one of three SEC opponents on the Panthers' schedule, with games against LSU and Texas A&M also on deck. Prairie View A&M lost to Mississippi State by just seven points last year, but finished the season with a 5-27 record.
The Panthers have been led by head coach Byron Smith since 2016. In that time, he's been named the SWAC Coach of the Year three times. But in the last four seasons, the Panthers have finished with a combined record of 36-86.
The Panthers' best player on the stat sheet so far this season has been UTSA transfer guard Tai'Reon Joseph. He's averaged 19.3 points per game this season, the third-most in the SWAC. He's also averaged 4.3 rebounds per game.
Missouri is coming off its first power-conference matchup of the season, taking down Minnesota in an 80-63 win. The Tigers scored 14 unanswered points in the second half to separate themselves after a tight first half. Senior forward Mark Mitchell led the Tigers in scoring for a third straight game, scoring 18. His 20 points per game are the third-highest mark in the SEC.
Meanwhile, Missouri's women's basketball will return home after a loss to Kansas in Kansas City. The Tigers will again play a border opponent, taking on Southern Illinois Carbondale.
