Missouri will play its final non-conference game of the season and its final game of the calendar year Monday night in St. Louis, with the Tigers set to take on No. 20 Illinois.

Illinois is the highest-ranked team Missouri has faced in non-conference play. The Fighting Illini are just the fourth high-major opponent the Tigers will face in the non-conference slate, making the game all the more important for the Tigers' resume.

It's also Missouri's only true neutral site game of the year. Though the Tigers' game against Kansas was in Kansas City, Kansas received a large majority of the ticket allotment. Monday's matchup in St. Louis typically features a true split crowd.

"Looking at the fans, looking at the environment, you have a true 50/50, neutral-site game, NCAA (Tournament) type of environment," Missouri heead coach Dennis Gates said in a press conference Sunday. "So it's a great rivalry, man. I'm just excited about the energy in the building.
