For the fourth straight season, Missouri football’s regular-season finale against Arkansas has been moved to the Friday after Thanksgiving and will air on CBS, the network announced Tuesday.
The fourth annual Battle Line Rivalry game is set for 1:30 p.m. Nov. 24 at Reynolds Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville, Ark.
The Tigers are 2-1 since the rivalry was established in 2014, edging the Razorbacks 21-14 in the inaugural game to capture a second consecutive SEC East championship.
Mizzou lost the 2015 game at Arkansas 28-3 in former coach Gary Pinkel’s final game on the sideline.
Last year, the Tigers scored 21 unanswered points in erasing a 17-point halftime deficit during a 28-24 victory in Barry Odom’s debut season.
