No. 19 Mizzou vs. Auburn

The No. 19 Missouri Tigers host the Auburn Tigers for a Week 8 game on Saturday, October 19th.

The game will be the main event of the university’s homecoming, marking the 113th year of the event.

The University of Missouri has a rich history with Homecoming. The university lays controversial claim to the event’s founding in 1911, when head coach Chester Brewer invited the school’s alumni to a game against Kansas.

Missouri is 67-40-5 all-time in homecoming games and has won each of its last seven. Missouri hopes to continue that streak in Week 8 when it resumes SEC play.

Last meeting: September 24, 2022 — Serious errors caused Missouri to suffer a 17-14 loss to Auburn. A nine-play, 62-yard drive by Missouri in the final two minutes gave kicker Harrison Mevis a chance to win the game as time expired, but he was no longer good at 26. Auburn’s Ander Carlson was good at 39 on the first drive in overtime, followed by Missouri running back Nate Peat fumbling the ball at the goal line, giving Aubrun the recovery and the win.
