Turnovers were the difference

[MUfan12]

18 for NC State, 10 for MU (4 for McNeal).

NCSU had the edge in every area but that. MU held them without a FG for the last 1:58 of the game. Clutch defensive effort down the stretch.

Big, big win. 2 of 3 from UW, UT, and NCSU. What I hoped for going into Big East play.

...and two more steals..that's 10 possessions.  Great way to play on the road
