Wednesday afternoon's faceoff with Mizzou at Columbia, Missouri will be The Sycamores' appears to be the toughest test yet this pre-season. On the year, The Tigers are 12-6, but since March 1st are 10-2 (with all games being played at home). In their last 12 games, they have posted 108 runs...an average of nine runs per game. Offensively, they are batting .275. Defensively, their pitching staff has a 3.98 ERA
The last time ISU went to Missouri was in 2009 as a potent Mizzou offense and a lackluster Sycamore offense led to two Missouri victories by scores of 8-1 and 12-2. In 2009, Missouri appears to have been a better team, especially from the mound. Mizzou's peak year was 2007 when they had an overall record of 42-18. That number slid to a losing record in 2011--27-32.
Indiana State’s 16-4 start to this season is tied for the best in school history through 20 games – ISU also started 16-4 in 1979, 1987 and 1990, winning at least 40 games each season and making the NCAA Tournament in 1979 and 1987.
Right now, there is no audio broadcast listed for ISU for Wednesday's game. Mizzou has audio and video available for a fee:

There will be Twitter feeds and most likely live stats.
The weather is iffy, with isolated thundershowers possible Wednesday afternoon. The high should be in the mid-70's.
