Missouri looks to fix problems exposed Saturday

COLUMBIA - If there was one thing that was clear to Missouri coach Frank Haith following the Tigers' 64-49 loss Saturday to Mississippi, it was the Tigers didn't handle adversity when it was tossed their way.

The Tigers fell behind 9-0 and never seemed to find an offensive rhythm without leading scorer Laurence Bowers.

Now the Tigers are searching for a way to fix some of the problems Mississippi exposed.

"You've got to be able to have a little bit of grit, and not go looking for help," Haith said Monday. "You have to make things happen. Whether it be complaining about officiating or whatever, you've got to go play. You've got to attack."
