Nate Oats picked up his first technical foul of the 2024-25 on Wednesday night in Columbia.
Alabama is trailing Mizzou in the 1st half of the top-15 showdown. Oats took issue with a foul call on Mark Sears, slamming his clipboard onto the court at Mizzou Arena.
It is Oats’ first tech in almost a full a year, according to social media accounts that keep up with that stat.

Mizzou has a lead of 59-46 at the half. It’s the most points for the Tigers in a half against an SEC team this season.
