Welcome to the Morning Commute
Today we’re talking about Homecoming Game Time.
It’s a new week for Mizzou Football.

This needs to be their “get right” game. While a game at UMass won’t tell us a whole lot, the Tigers desperately need to get that bad taste out of their mouth after what happened at Texas A&M.
We’ll know a lot more about this team the following Saturday. Mizzou’s Homecoming game against Auburn will kick-off at 11:00 a.m. or 11:45 a.m. CST. It will either be on ESPN or the SEC Network.

And with Mizzou Football on the road again this week, there are still plenty of non-revenue sports on the calendar in COMO this week. The Olympic Sports team will have coverage of all of them, and a yet-to-be-announced Gymnastics practice/intrasquad.
Plenty of chances to see your Tigers in action this week #MIZ pic.twitter.com/3ciSpZKIfu

“As we learned in college football this weekend, nothing is guaranteed. A lot is still up for grabs. It’ll be Mizzou’s job to sort it out from here.”
Silver lining: There’s still a lot of football left to be played.
“And despite Mizzou logging its first loss of the 2024 season — and not playing particularly well! — our staff really showed out for the reasons they found to celebrate the trip to College Station.”
It’s an interesting latest edition of the MV3, to say the least.
“There are a lot of things that need to happen for this team to have a successful season, a realistic goal that is still on the table, even if their biggest dreams now seem impossible. Many of them are tangible, football related challenges. But for the intangibles, it’s time now for Drinkwitz and his veteran leaders to exhibit again the ability to rally a wounded team.”
One loss doesn’t have to define a season, now Mizzou needs to respond in a big way.
BOOOOOOOOOM, BABYYYYYYY.

“Adding another insanely good gymnast like Helen Hu to the mix just makes this team that much deeper. It propels them higher into potential SEC rankings. It increases their chances at getting back to the National Championships in Fort Worth, which is their ultimate goal this season.”
Helen Hu returning next season is obviously huge news for Shannon Welker’s squad. Watch out for Mizzou Gymnastics as championship contenders this year. Karen and Gym colleague Nate Salsman (The Maneater) were so excited they recorded a special episode of Majority Rules to break it down.
“Hopefully it doesn’t leave a lasting mark on this team, but we’ll see what kind of culture is inside the locker room going forward.”
It will be interesting to see how the Tigers will respond from this loss.
Player Preview | #Mizzou freshman Peyton Marshall has dramatically reshaped his physique and worked on his passing reads, but his strength on defensive and the glass might earn steady minutes.

“His minutes will go a long way in shaping the best-case scenario for the future of Mizzou’s program.”
Read up on Peyton Marshall in our latest player preview, who is a key foundational piece to Mizzou Hoops’ 2024 Class.
“This weekend, I traveled “Deep in the Heart of Texas” to photograph Missouri’s game at Texas A&M. I didn’t expect the final result to happen, and frankly, neither did any of the Aggie fans I spoke to. Nevertheless, I had a great time in the Lone Star State, and I enjoyed making all of these pictures.”
While Saturday’s game obviously wasn’t good, Cal’s photos certainly were.
The 2024 Mizzou Football season is one that has been met with as much anticipation as any in recent memory. With Eli Drinkwitz’s program taking a huge step forward in the 2023 season, going 11-2 and securing a Cotton Bowl victory over the Ohio State Buckeyes, there’s a renewed focus on what Missouri can do to put itself in the conversation for a berth in the College Football Playoff.
The digital magazine we present today is 115 pages chalk full of Mizzou Football previewing, scouting, interviewing, and more…
- Over at Rock M+,: There were two 2026 softball commitments from over the weekend: Hadley Borders and Katelynn Knight
