(Columbia, Missouri-AP) -- Oklahoma State and Missouri play a big game for the Big 12 tonight. O-S-U is tied for first place with Iowa State and Texas. And then comes Missouri which is alone in fourth place.

After playing Missouri in Columbia tonight, O-S-U tips off against league-leading Iowa State on the road Saturday. In Big 12 games, O-S-U is first in scoring defense. But Missouri is first in scoring offense. The Cowboys lead the league in 3-pointpercentage defense. But Missouri ranks third in the nation in 3-pointers made per game. The Tigers have already broken school records and 3-pointers made and tried in a season. O-S-U guard Glendon Alexander says it's going to be a great matchup.
