Missouri won its 41st consecutive home court non-conference game, which extends their school-record streak. The Tigers last non-conference home loss was the first game of the 2005-06 season against Sam Houston State.
Missouri pushed its home court winning streak (all games) to 23 games, which is the third longest streak in school history and the fifth longest active streak in NCAA Division I.
Missouri topped the 100-point mark for the second time this season. The Tigers scored 100 points in a 1000-44 win against Texas-Pan American on Nov. 22. In fact, Missouri scored 53 points in the first half, their second highest total of the year. The Tigers have scored 50+ points in the first half of each home game this year.
Missouri had a season high six players reach double figures in scoring. The last time Missouri had six guys reach double figures was during last season's win at Oklahoma State.
