GAME NOTES

COLUMBIA, Mo. - Mizzou Women's Basketball (13-7, 3-3) hits the road riding a two-game win streak in SEC play. The Tigers travel to Fayetteville, Ark., to face border rival Arkansas at Bud Walton Arena on Monday night. The game, which will air on SEC Network, tips off at 6 p.m. CT.

OF NOTE

• Mizzou is coming off its first home win over Texas A&M since 2005.
• Mizzou now has three consecutive wins at home over ranked opponents (No. 25 Texas A&M this season and No. 6 Mississippi State and No. 22 Florida last season). The Tigers are 10-1 this season at home. 
• Mizzou is searching for its first win at Arkansas since Dec. 21, 2008 and the second total victory against the Razorbacks in Fayetteville in program history. 
• Mizzou and Arkansas have split its season series each of the last two seasons, with both teams winning at home in 2015-16 and 2014-15.
• Mizzou has been dominant in first quarters this season, outscoring opponents 352-267 in the frame, including 98-63 in SEC play.
• Alongside South Carolina and Mississippi State, Mizzou is one of three teams in the SEC that have made at least 27 free throws in a single game twice (27 vs. Indiana State, 27 vs. Texas A&M). 
• Mizzou made all of its free throw attempts at LSU. Mizzou has shot above 70 percent from the charity stripe in 18 of 20 games this season.
• The Tigers rank eighth in the nation in free throw percentage as a team so far this season as the team is shooting 79.0 percent from the line. That percentage currently tops the Southeastern Conference. 
• Mizzou ranks 10th in Division I in total free throws made with 297. Mizzou has taken at least 35 less attempts at the line than all nine teams ahead of them on the list.

SENSATIONAL SOPHIE

• Since returning from a back injury that sidelined her for two games, Sophie Cunningham has averaged 20 points per contest over the last nine outings. She is averaging 20.7 points per game during SEC play, which ranks second in the conference.
• Cunningham has played her best basketball of the season of late. The sophomore paced Mizzou with 24 points on 10-of-16 shooting (62.5 percent) vs. Alabama, followed with 32 points on 12-of-17 shooting at LSU and most recently poured in a season-high 36 points against Texas A&M. The 36 point-outburst is the best performance in the SEC during conference play thus far and she's the only player in the league to record multiple 30-point games since the conference slate began. 
• Cunningham went 10-for-19 from the field and 14-of-15 from the free throw line vs. Texas A&M. She is the first Tiger in 15 seasons to make 10 field goals and 10 free throws in the same game and she's now done it twice in her career (Wake Forest last season).  The 14 free throws are the most by an SEC player in a game during league play and she's one of two SEC players to make at least 10 field goals in a game three times during conference play, alongside Kentucky's Evelyn Ahkator. 
• Last Thursday marked the fifth time since her return that Cunningham has notched at least 20 points in a game. She's now reached 20 points in a game six times this season and 16 times in her young career (which includes just 50 total games played). 
• Cunningham is the only player in the SEC shooting above 45 percent from the field (48.8 percent) and above 80 percent from the free throw line (84.8 percent) this season.  

OT MADNESS

• In Thursday's contest between Mizzou and Texas A&M, the Tigers and Aggies combined to score 42 points in the overtime period. That set a new NCAA record for combined points in a single overtime period.
• Mizzou notched 22 points in OT, which was one shy of matching the NCAA record for points by a single team in one overtime period. The 22 points are a new program record and tied the SEC record. 
• Mizzou and Texas A&M have now played back-to-back overtimes against each other with the two teams each winning one. Mizzou is 3-2 in its last five overtime games. 
• The Tigers made 17 free throws in overtime alone. Sophie Cunningham, Cierra Porter and Lindsey Cunningham combined to make 14-of-14 free throws in OT. 

SCOUTING ARKANSAS

• Arkansas is also riding a two-game win streak after a solid road victory at Alabama and a triumph over Vanderbilt on Thursday. 
• Senior Jessica Jackson is averaging a team-best 15.3 points per game and 6.4 rebounds per contest. Jackson ranks third among active SEC players in career three-pointers with 179 triples. She leads all active SEC players in career points with 1,714.
• Arkansas is one of the top defensive teams in the SEC, ranking fourth in the league in scoring defense as the Razorbacks allow just 57.5 points per game. 

LAST TIME OUT

• Mizzou knocked off No. 25 Texas A&M, 78-76, in an overtime thriller at Mizzou Arena on Thursday night.
• The Tigers were bolstered by an incredible performance from Sophie Cunningham. Cunningham poured in a season-high 36 points (10-of-19 FG, 14-of-15 FTs), including a game-tying reverse layup with three seconds left in regulation to send the game to overtime. Cunningham made 14-of-15 free throws, 10 of which came after the 1:04 mark in the fourth quarter. The 14 free throws were a career-high and just three shy of tying the program record in a single game.
