The Southeastern Conference (SEC) released the football schedule on Wednesday. Mizzou will be hosting eight home games at Faurot in 2025, which is a first in program history.

The Tigers will open 2025 at home against Central Arkansas on Saturday August 30. They’ll host former Big 8 and Big 12 rival Kansas the following week. The Tigers and Jayhawks haven’t played in football since 2011. The Alabama Crimson Tide and Texas A&M also travel to Faurot in 2025.

The 9-3 Tigers have one game left in the 2024 season: they’ll face Iowa on December 30 in the TransPerfect Music City Bowl in Nashville. It will be a 1:30 kickoff at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. There will be live coverage that day on both ESPN and on the Central Bank Tiger Radio Network from Learfield.
