Missouri is looking to bounce back from a tough 41-20 home loss last Saturday evening to 7th-ranked Georgia as Arizona State comes to Columbia Saturday.

Last year Missouri  dropped a 37-30 overtime heartbreaker in the desert at Arizona State, and they'll look to avenge that loss Saturday.

ASU comes into Saturday's contest a perfect 2-0 for 1st-year Head Coach Todd Graham.

The Sun Devils opened their 2012 campaign with a 63-6 pasting of Northern Arizona, and followed with a second home win over Illinois by a convincing 45-14 margin.

Arizona State is led by 1st-year starting QB Taylor Kelly, who comes into the game ranked 7th in the NCAA in passing efficiency (188.99 rating).

As a team, the Sun Devils rank in the top-25 nationally in just about every major offensive and defensive category through two games.
