MURRAY STATE - 0

MISSOURI - 51

WE BACK! COLUMBIA MARKS THE TRIUMPHANT RETURN TO THE TOUR OF [WAY MORE THAN 64]! WHILE IT WAS A WEAK OPPONENT AND A THURSDAY NIGHT GAME, THE EXPERIENCE WAS STILL AMAZING! I HAVE FRIENDS IN COMO, SO WE GOT A BIT OF A VIP EXPERIENCE.

THE STADIUM IS GREAT! EASY ALL AROUND. PRETTY FULL DESPITE THE MATCHUP CIRCUMSTANCES. FORGOT TO GET A HOT DOG, THOUGH, DAMNIT.

GAME TIP - WE WERE IN ROW 2, SO THE GAME ITSELF WAS TOUGH TO WATCH. COULD BASICALLY HIGH FIVE THE CHEERLEADERS, THOUGH, AND WE GOT PHOTOS WITH THE MASCOT, SO THAT'S COOL. SIT HIGHER UP IF YOU WANT TO REALLY SEE THE GAME, THOUGH.

TRAVEL TIP - CLOSEST AIRPORTS ARE TWO HOURS AWAY [UNLESS YOU RICH RICH], SO PRERARE TO DRIVE. GIVES YOU AN EXCUSE TO SEE KC OR ST. LOUIS, THOUGH. LAKESIDE COTTAGE AIRBNB IS AMAZING!

WHERE TO EAT - ABSOLUTELY CC'S CITY BROILER. DOESN'T LOOK THE PART FROM OUTSIDE, BUT DAMNIT IF THAT'S NOT THE BEST STEAK I'VE EVER HAD. TEN STARS!!!

UP NEXT - UTEP @ NEBRASKA!
