Getting ready for the Cotton Bowl
It’s four days and counting until the Mizzou Tigers take on the Arkansas Razorbacks in the AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic on Jan. 1 in Dallas. The team left for Dallas Wednesday, and various alumni groups, Marching Mizzou, cheer squads and fans will be leaving in the days to come.
Mizzou Wire will be blogging from the Cotton Bowl beginning Sunday, Dec. 30. Check back here for complete Cotton Bowl coverage, or subscribe to the Live Wire Blog feed to keep up with the action.
In the meantime, the Mizzou Alumni Association has information on watch parties and fan events. Get ready for the 11-2 Tigers’ first New Year’s Day bowl since 1970.
