The #20 Missouri Tigers will meet with the Florida Gators in NCAAB action in Stephen C. O’Connell Center, FL, on Saturday, January 14, 2023, at 3:30 PM ET.

 

Before losing to sixth-ranked Kansas, Missouri went 11-1 in non-conference play, winning its first nine matches. However, the Tigers didn’t falter after that, winning three straight games against UCF, Illinois, and Kentucky.

 

It’s easy to say that Mizzou, which the SEC preseason poll projected to finish 11th, surpassed expectations for the 2022–23 campaign. After losing to the Aggies on Wednesday, the Tigers dropped two of their previous three games.

 

At halftime, TAMU was up 43-25 and never fell down by more than a bucket. Missouri made 21 of 59 attempts (35.6%), including 7 of 31 (31.2%) from the three-point range.

 

The Aggies had 18 turnovers, but the Tigers outrebounded them 42-25 and were unable to capitalize on them.

 

Missouri is sixth in D-1 in points scored per game (85.7) and has the 13th-highest field goal percentage (49.4%). With a 35.9 percent field goal percentage and a 75.5 percent free-throw rate, it ranks 33rd overall.

 

According to KenPom, Mizzou ranks sixth nationally in schedule-adjusted offensive efficiency. The Tigers allow 44.7 percent shooting, including 35.6 percent from the three-point range, for 75.6 points per game.

 

They rank 200th in defensive efficiency rating after adjusting for schedule, and seventh in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.60).

 

  • The Missouri Tigers are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 matches. 
  • The total went OVER in 14 of Missouri’s last 20 matches. 
  • The Tigers are 13-3 SU in their last 16 matches.

Missouri Tigers vs Florida Gators Predictions 1/14/2023

 

Despite being 9-7, the Florida Gators beat SEC opponents in back-to-back games. However, the Tigers are a formidable opponent after defeating 13 of their first 16.

 

The preseason league poll had Florida as the conference’s seventh-place finisher. On Tuesday, Florida defeated LSU by 11 points after trailing 28-25 at the break.

 

Colin Castleton, a senior forward, led the Gators in scoring with 18 points, 7 rebounds, and five blocks in the second half.

 

LSU was only able to shoot 32.2 percent (19 for 59), including 17.9 percent (5 for 28) from beyond the arc. In their defeat at home, the Tigers also made 16 errors.

 

The Gators average 74.3 points per game while shooting 45.1 percent from the field, including 33.0 percent from the three-point range.

 

UF ranks 94th in offensive efficiency after adjusting for schedule and 35th in free-throw shooting (75.4%). Florida conceded 66.5 points while shooting only 40.2% overall and 33.2% from long distance.

 

It ranks 152nd in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.01), and it has the 22nd-highest defensive efficiency rating (schedule adjusted).

 

  • The Florida Gators are 7-13 ATS in their last 20 matches. 
  • The total went UNDER in 7 of Florida’s last 8 matches. 
  • The Gators are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 matches at home.

#20 Missouri Tigers vs Florida Gators. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Florida Gators. As it enters this away game, Missouri is returning from one of its worst shooting performances (35.6%) of the season.

 

When the Tigers make their shots, they are explosive, but when they don’t, they are prone on defense (200th in defensive efficiency).

 

The Gators’ attack will take advantage of the Tigers’ subpar defense to put the defensive brakes on Mizzou, just like they did against LSU (32.2 FG%). The Florida Gators will win to a predicted score of 78-72.
