Missouri Take 5-1 Record To Mississippi
Missouri go into this big SEC matchup looking to make it three wins in a row and improve their record to 6-1.
The Tigers opened the season with three straight non-conference games, and came out on top in all three of them.
They blew out Arkansas-Pine Bluff 54-14, and backed that up by beating Kansas 38-21 and Troy 27-17.
Missouri failed to make it four-in-a-row in their conference opener, losing 31-24 at Mississippi State, but their response has been nothing short of impressive.
The Tigers bounced back with a stunning 45-17 demolition of a top-10 Florida team, before holding Texas A&M to just six points in a 27-6 victory.
Ole Miss Bounced Back From First Loss
Ole Miss enter this matchup having rebounded from their first loss of the season with a victory that took them to 4-1.
The Rebels kicked off the campaign with back-to-back non-conference wins, beating Louisville 41-38 and Charlotte 41-9.
That set them up for a huge SEC opener against LSU and Lane Kiffin, and they got the better of their former head coach thanks to a 32-24 victory.
Ole Miss were brought back down to Earth a week later by a 52-28 defeat at Florida, but they rebounded in emphatic fashion.
The Rebels pounced on a sloppy and ill-disciplined Vanderbilt team to record a 52-17 victory last weekend.
