Mizzou and Auburn have played each other just four times, and in each of those contests, normalcy took a vacation.
The first meeting was the most regular: the 1973 Sun Bowl, which will be entailed soon. But the next meeting, which came in the 2013 SEC Championship, still stands as the highest-scoring contest in the SEC title game’s 30-plus year history. 2017 saw Auburn claim a 35-point victory in Columbia, and 2022 saw Mizzou squander a win that was literally within arm’s length…twice.
Mizzou is in a very different place than it was two years ago. Auburn?
