If there was ever a time for the Missouri Tigers to win at Louisiana State, this is it.
LSU announced Sunday that it has terminated the contract of longtime head coach Les Miles. Miles, who won a BCS National Championship with the school in 2007, has been in charge in the bayou for the last 12 seasons. After sparing his job last season due to widespread fan outcry at his leaked firing, LSU decided Saturday's loss at Auburn was the last straw.
With LSU football in turmoil, many in Missouri are optimistic about Mizzou’s chances of picking up a win in Death Valley.
