Missouri avoids letdown at home, holds off Vanderbilt

COLUMBIA, Mo. — The No. 20 Missouri Tigers avoided their first losing streak of the season Saturday, holding off Vanderbilt, 85-82, at a sold-out Mizzou Arena.

On a balanced scoring day for the Tigers, Kobe Brown bounced back from a rough outing in Wednesday’s loss at Arkansas to lead the Tigers with 18 points and eight rebounds, while DeAndre Gholston matched his 18 points and made the defensive save of the day.

With the Tigers up four with 4 seconds left, Gholston stole Vanderbilt’s inbounds pass, then sank two free throws to ice the victory.
