Texas Longhorns vs. Missouri Tigers Prediction

I’m on the Tigers at home here. I just haven’t felt like I can consistently trust this Texas team at home, as Missouri’s only dropped one at home all year because this is one of the more solid home court edges in the SEC. Texas has been solid in their own right at times, but most of those games have come at home and I think on the road, the Longhorns have some issues in this environment. Give me Missouri.
