It’s finally time to say the words fans have been itching to hear for months: football is back in Columbia.
The 135th team in the history of the Missouri Tigers football program takes the field for the first time at 7 p.m.
They’ll do so in a transformed venue after the completion of the $250 million Memorial Stadium Centennial Project as Mizzou Athletics held the official ribbon cutting ceremony for the new north end zone, which made up the majority of the project, Wednesday.
MU’s matchup with Arkansas-Pine
Bluff isn’t expected to be a close, intense contest; the Tigers are favored by nearly 55 points. That doesn’t mean there won’t be some interesting things to keep an eye on during this game, though.
We’ll have the most notable updates from the game here in this article as Mizzou officially enters the seventh year of the Eli Drinkwitz era in CoMo. For all of our live updates, check our forums over at RockM+.
