COLUMBIA, MO. • It’s game week, people.
The college football season is finally here.
Missouri’s season kicks off with Saturday’s 11 a.m. visit from Missouri State, the first meeting between the in-state programs since 1923.
A quick reminder for those who have grown use to Mizzou’s in-season media routine for the last 16 years or so: Forget what you know and get used to the new normal. Since Gary Pinkel’s time as head coach, MU’s media day has always been Monday. Now Barry Odom and his assistant coaches and players will do interviews on Tuesday.
