MU coach Eli Drinkwitz has his team getting ready for a hot and loud environment at Kyle Field. The Tigers are going with a cool combo for the conference clash against a ranked road opponent.
Mizzou revealed Wednesday that the Tigers are going white-on-white-on-white for Week 6. MU will sport white helmets with the Tiger logo, white jerseys and white pants. Wide receiver Joshua Manning modeled the road threads.

Drinkwitz’s squad enters its first road game with an unblemished record, but there have been a couple of close calls.
In Week 3, a ranked Boston College squad established a double-digit lead over Mizzou in the 1st half. The Tigers trailed 14-3 in the 2nd quarter, but scored the next 24 points and held on in the 4th quarter for a 27-21 victory.
Last time out, Vanderbilt gave Mizzou all it could handle in Week 4. The Commodores knotted things up 20-20 before the end of the 3rd quarter. The Tigers managed 10 points in 2 thrilling overtimes to secure a 30-27 victory in the conference opener.
Expectations are for a close game on Saturday. At FanDuel Sportsbook, Mizzou is a 2.5-point road underdog. ESPN’s FPI gives the Tigers a 51.7% chance of winning straight up.
