COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri’s hosting a brunch party on Saturday, which means it’s time to tidy things up.
The No. 6 Tigers face No. 24 Boston College at 11:45 a.m. at home, the only ranked-on-ranked game of the day. As a result, there will be plenty of eyes on the game — not just from another sellout crowd, but from a broader audience intrigued by MU’s possible status as a College Football Playoff contender and the Eagles’ hot start.
Any anonymity granted by starting the season against the likes of Murray State and Buffalo will fade under the sunshine of a matinee game.
