WATCH: Missouri releases hype video ahead of matchup with Purdue

Missouri has an opportunity to bounce back from a loss and secure a non-conference win for the SEC this weekend.
The Tigers fell to 1-1 after following to South Carolina 31-13 last Saturday. Missouri did gain more yardage than South Carolina (423 to 359), but three Tigers turnovers and a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by Deebo Samuel swung the game to the Gamecocks.
QB Drew Lock and company will look to rebound when the Tigers take on Purdue Saturday in Columbia. The Boilermakers are 1-1 so far this season, but they are hungry after hanging with reigning Heisman winner Lamar Jackson and Louisville on opening weekend.
The Tigers would love to lock down a non-conference victory, and Mizzou Football tweeted out a hype video ahead of Saturday’s matchup:
