10. Missouri

Despite a trying season and 5-13 conference mark, Missouri was defensively sound last season (while playing an especially slow brand of basketball, to be fair), and looks clearly positioned for some improvement. Most of the team returns, including junior Jeremiah Tilmon, and Evansville transfer Dru Smith should be a key reinforcement as Cuonzo Martin leans on guard-heavy lineups. The Tigers draw a friendly conference schedule and will face Kentucky and Florida just once each. There’s a real chance they return to the middle of the pack if things break correctly.
