The Missouri Tigers haven’t won many SEC road games since legendary coach Gary Pinkel retired.

However, on Saturday afternoon, the Tigers went down to Gainesville and picked up a huge win over the Florida Gators in The Swamp.

After the win, Pinkel offered his congratulations to coach Barry Odom and his former team via Twitter, as you can see below:

The Tigers improved to 5-4 with the win, but now the focus becomes getting that sixth win (and more) in the next three weeks.

Odom will certainly appreciate the praise from Mizzou’s all-time winningest coach, though, especially after all the heat he took following Mizzou’s collapse against Kentucky last weekend.
