Mizzou to host Missouri State in 2017

First match-up since 1923.

I bet Mo State is getting a huge pay day for that game!

There were a couple of years around the Stull era when this game might have been competitive.

Glad to see Mo State staying closer to home for their "money game". Much better than Oregon, Kansas State, Louisville or who knows where.. It should make the MSU folks happy.

With the new playoff system, scheduling this game makes no sense for Mizzou.

If it was basketball right now Mizzou would probably get a big payday by playing Mo State.

So sad, yet so true.

I said that yesterday about the basketball game. Except I think I used the words "Worst D1 game in the history of the NCAA" Might have been a little overdramatic, but they are both really really bad this year.

It keeps the money in Missouri. Missouri gets to test it's game without getting
beat and Missouri State gets the money and their fans can travel to the game. If
Tigers can win the SEC, they will be in the national playoff.
