Welcome to the Morning Commute
Today we’re talking about Mizzou Football game-times
Mizzou Football has added another night game to their home schedule. September 19th against Troy has been moved to a 6:00 p.m. CST kick-off — the program announced on Wednesday with the broadcast remaining on SEC Network Plus.
It will be the 100th anniversary of Memorial Stadium celebration game — which
also marks Missouri’s first Saturday game of the season. Mizzou n0w has evening home games set against Arkansas Pine-Bluff (9/3), Troy (9/19), and Kentucky (11/21). Missouri’s Homecoming game against Florida on October 3rd has the potential to be evening depending on flex TV options.
We’re officially one week away until kick-off, folks! MIZ!

- Morning Commute from Jaden Lewis: The Southeastern Conference responds
This is fascinating for Mizzou not only because they are an SEC member, but also because Mark Mitchell is in pursuit of trying to join Kentucky’s basketball roster. Under these new rules, it appears that he would still be eligible to compete with the Wildcats as per multiple reports, he did not sign an Exhibit 10 contract.
Will Sankey allow Mitchell’s transfer to another SEC school?
- 2026 Mizzou Football Preview from Jaden Lewis: Meet Your Safeties
Not only does he return as one of Mizzou’s most productive defenders, but he also brings versatility with his game, lining up in the past within the box, slot, cornerback, and free safety.
Santana Banner leads Mizzou’s safety group with plenty of intriguing talent and potential.
- Columns and Courts from Aaron Segal: The Lonely Veteran: How a 19-Year Old Became Mizzou Tennis’ Wise Old Soul
Alex Ackman is only beginning her second year in Columbia, but she enters the Robin Goodman era as the lone returning player from last season’s roster. A coaching change, departures and an offseason overhaul transformed Missouri tennis almost overnight. The player who was once learning her way through college tennis is now the closest thing the Tigers have to a link with what came before.
Despite only being a sophomore, Alex Ackman is looking to be the leader for Mizzou Tennis this season.
- 2026 Best Bets from Nathan Hurst: Week Zero
We’re back baby!!!! Not only is college football here as of Saturday, but Best Bets returns to continue our march to monetary glory. This is year three of Best Bets from yours truly; year one was a resounding success, with a 35-26-1 (.574) record on our Best Bets. While year two was up and down all season, we flirted with .500 until a final playoff push got us in the black for good. 2025 finished 30-27 on Best Bets and 59-52 overall on our picks.
Can you believe it? Week Zero is here — and Nathan previews it from a betting angle.
