The Missouri Tigers, the #3 seed in the West Regional will tip-off their first round game Friday at 2pm CT in Boise, Idaho when they take on #14 seed Cornell.  The Tigers would then play the winner of #6 Marquette/#11 Utah State at 1:20 or 3:50 on Sunday afternoon.

Many Missouri fans were hoping that the Tigers would get an invite to Kansas City, but that didn’t work out so instead, the Tigers will head back to Boise, Idaho, sight of the famous Tyus Edney game. 

Instead, the Tigers are headed to Boise.  Players like Leo Lyons would have liked to have gone home to KC, but the fact the Tigers are back into the tournament for the first time since 2003, really makes no difference.

Listen to Head Coach Mike Anderson, Leo Lyons, and Zaire Taylor after they heard the news they were headed to Idaho for the first two rounds of the tournament.  I’ve also attached a bracke for you to download.
