The Missouri Tigers have started to turn things around after a 1-5 start, improving to 3-5 with wins over Idaho and UConn.
However, the Tigers haven’t won an SEC game yet this year, so Saturday’s home game against the Florida Gators is a big one.
That’s why Mizzou has announced a blackout game this weekend, and the Tigers will wear matte black helmets, black jerseys and black pants when they take the field against the Gators:

The matte black helmets are some of the coolest helmets in the SEC, so it’ll be fun to see the Tigers wear them on Saturday. However, it would be even cooler if the blackout game was a night game instead of a morning game.
Mizzou has a chance to reach bowl eligibility this season, but it will need to pick up a win over Florida on Saturday to ease some of the pressure.
Saturday afternoon’s game kicks off at 11 a.m. Central time and can be seen on ESPN2.
