On the other side of the bracket, Northern Iowa will take on Penn, and Kansas State will square off against Eastern Kentucky.
Missouri, Penn, and Kansas State all made the NCAA Tournament this past season, with the Wildcats being the only team to advance in making it to the Elite Eight.
Cuonzo Martin’s squad participated in the 2017 Advocare Invitiational in Orlando and advanced to the championship game before losing to West Virginia.
The Tigers finished 20-13 overall and made it to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in five years.
