COLUMBIA, Mo. — Mike Anderson's squad will break out its anthracite uniforms for the first time this season Tuesday.
It will be the straight third year the men's basketball team has worn the alternate jerseys at Missouri. Last season's 61-60 win over the Tigers was the last time they made an appearance.

In those four games, the Razorbacks are 2-2, including 1-1 against the Tigers.
