The Missouri Tigers (2-2, 0-1) get set for their SEC home opener against the Tennessee Volunteers (2-2, 0-1). Both teams have had pretty dang similar starts to the season heading into this game.
If Mizzou has any hopes to make it to a bowl game this season, this is essentially a must-win for the Tigers. Too add even more intrigue, former Mizzou offensive coordinator Josh Heupel returns to Columbia as Tennessee’s head coach. Kick-off on Saturday is set for the usual 11:00 a.m. CST on the SEC Network.
To get a Tennessee perspective, I talked it over with Nick Carner over at Rocky Top Talk to preview the upcoming match up.
