Homecoming, whether at the University of Missouri or another American institution, is supposed to be a reminder of why alma maters loved the school they attended.
As the annual tradition beckons at Mizzou (where it was probably NOT invented, despite popular opinion in Columbia), one of those reasons to love the school is a superstar that’s shined on the gridiron since he stepped on campus in 2022: Luther Burden III.
The junior has continued to electrify in 2024, which included a huge outing against UMass last Saturday. Burden recorded 127 total yards on just seven touches, including a 61-yard touchdown run on the second play from scrimmage.
