Missouri football is looking for its third consecutive SEC victory after knocking off South Carolina, 23-10 in its most recent showing. Up next, the Tigers will face a reeling Kentucky team that was recently downed 44-6 by the Tennessee Volunteers.
Ahead of the upcoming game, Mizzou head coach Eli Drinkwitz praised Mark Stoops for the type of program he has built at Kentucky in his tenure there. The Wildcats are obviously still going through some ups and downs but have had a lot of growth in a short period of time under Stoops.
“He took a job in this league that had not had a whole lot of success and went and built an identity and stuck with his process,” Drinkwitz said. “They’re very tough, they’re very physical, they’re very long.”
