ST. LOUIS — For the third time in the last four seasons, the Missouri Tigers have gone dancing.
Dennis Gates and the Tigers landed a 10-seed in the 2026 NCAA Tournament and are facing the No. 7 seed Miami Hurricanes. The Tigers also have a near-home-court advantage, playing just two hours from Columbia inside the Enterprise Center.
Missouri’s potential for a homecourt advantage is undeniable. Fans won’t have to drive very far to get to St. Louis to support the Tigers, especially compared to how far Miami faithful would have to travel.
