The Missouri Tigers (4-5 overall, 1-5 in SEC play) continue their road swing in the month of November, as they play their second-straight away game this Saturday.

After giving #8 Florida all it could handle last Saturday in Gainesville, Fla. before falling, 14-7, the Tigers head to Knoxville, Tenn., where they will make their first-ever appearance in historic Neyland Stadium, home of the Tennessee Volunteers (4-5, 0-5).

Kickoff for the game is set for 11:21 a.m. (central time), and it will be televised on the SEC Network.


Tennessee is coming off a thrilling Homecoming win over Troy last Saturday, in a game the Volunteers won by a 55-48 score

Volunteer QB Tyler Bray, who ended the day with 530 yards passing and 5 TDs, struck back immediately with his 5th TD pass (46 yards) to tie the game, and he led a game-winning TD drive after his defense gave him the ball back.


This will mark the first-ever meeting between MU and UT, and it will be the 2nd of 3 road games in which the Tigers face to close the month of November
