COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri football has made a scheduling swap for the 2025 season.
Mizzou will no longer face Miami University of Ohio on the road and will instead add a previously unreported home game against Central Arkansas.
That game is scheduled for Saturday, August 30, 2025, according to a contract between MU and Central Arkansas obtained by the Post-Dispatch through an open records request. Missouri will pay Central Arkansas $500,000 for its participation in the game.
The Tigers and Bears have never played each other in football. Central Arkansas is a Football Championship Subdivision, or FCS, program that plays in the United Athletic Conference.
