Holiday hoops and a Tiger send-off
Happy holidays to everyone from the staff at Mizzou Wire. Here are some things to note for the coming week.
In case you missed it among all the football hoopla, men’s basketball is off to a solid start. Mike Anderson and his 8-3 Tigers take on Illinois at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 22, in St. Louis in the annual Braggin’ Rights game. It’s the 27th official year for this border rivalry.
If you are in Columbia and want to keep showing some love to the football team, you can meet at 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 26 to send them off to Dallas. Park on west side of Memorial Stadium and use the pedestrian bridge to meet at the Mizzou Athletic Training Complex.
Speaking of Dallas, we’ll be blogging again from the Cotton Bowl. Check back Sunday, Dec. 30 for the start of our reports, photos and highlights from Mizzou’s first New Year’s bowl since 1970.
