Some good:
1) The season-high home crowd of 11,513
2) Geist: poured in a season-high 25 points, made 3 of his first 4 3-pointers and pulled down a game-high and career-high 11 rebounds. He routinely tricked the taller LSU Tigers out of their Nikes with his fakes and pivots in the paint. He drew three fouls by sprawling to the floor. He salvaged a possession when he chased down a missed free throw into the Mizzou bench. This Missouri team isn’t going to win with style points, and the one guy who puts the Tigers in position to beat more talented and deeper teams is the senior point guard.
“He was phenomenal,” Wade said. “He gets in there and pivots … he gets angles. He was tremendous. He was much more aggressive than we were for a vast majority of the game and it showed.”
3) Tillmon: For all the whistles on the LSU big men, Tilmon managed to stay on the floor for a career-high 35 minutes. He scored 15 points on eight shots and turned the ball over only once.
4) Pinson: gave the Tigers spark off the bench with eight points and two steals in 14 minutes. He was fearless driving the ball inside against LSU’s big bodies. He finished the game a team-best plus-7.
