The Missouri Tigers prepare for a significant road test against Ole Miss this Saturday at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Under Eli Drinkwitz, the Tigers recently secured milestone victories against ranked opponents, defeating No. 8 Florida 45-17 and Texas A&M 27-6. However, Drinkwitz's road record is concerning, with just one SEC win against a team with a winning season since 2022. Mizzou, currently 5-1, looks to convert previous successes into a strong road performance amid the challenging SEC environment.
- •Mizzou is 5-1 this season and ranked in the SEC.
- •Two recent wins over ranked teams boost morale.
- •Drinkwitz holds an 11-18 road record at Mizzou.
- •Last won on the road against a ranked SEC team in 2022.
- •Ole Miss is fresh off a 52-17 victory against Vanderbilt.
