Mizzou starter to miss Saturday's game vs. Texas A&M due to wisdom tooth removal
The Missouri Tigers are trying to pick up SEC win No. 3 on Saturday night when the Texas A&M Aggies come to town.
Though the Tigers beat the Aggies in College Station earlier this year, this game in Columbia won’t be easy, as they’ll have to play it without one of their top players.
Per Mizzou reporter Dave Matter, star big man Jeremiah Tilmon had emergency wisdom tooth surgery and won’t be able to play:

That’s just the start for the Tigers, as they’ll only have eight scholarship players available to use against the Aggies as Mark Smith misses another game:
