How to watch Missouri football play Boston College in a ranked game

Vaseline September 14, 2024

There is a top 25 competition coming up in Colombia.

Missouri football plays Boston College on Saturday at Faurot Field in Columbia for its third game of the season. The Tigers-Eagles matchup will be the first non-conference game played at Memorial Stadium between two teams ranked in the AP Top 25 since the Oct. 4, 1980, game between Mizzou and Penn State.

Mizzou opened the season with a 51-0 win over FCS-based Murray State and followed that up with a second straight shutout, beating Buffalo 38-0 last Saturday.

Eli Drinkwitz’s Tigers have climbed in the polls after the second full week of the regular season, rising to No. 6 in the AP Top 25 and No. 8 in the U.S. LBM Coaches Poll.

Boston College, after beating Florida State and the FCS’s Duquesne, has risen to No. 25 in the AP poll but remains unranked by coaches. The Eagles are coached by Bill O’Brien.

Time: 11:45 am CDT

The game between Missouri and Boston College starts at 11:45 a.m., making it the first morning kickoff of Mizzou’s season. The game is sold out, according to Missouri Athletics, meaning it will be the eighth consecutive capacity crowd at Memorial Stadium — a streak that dates back to last season.

Mizzou athletic director Laird Veatch addressed the UM System Board of Curators in Kansas City on Thursday. His presentation indicated that the Tigers expect a sold-out season. Only Missouri’s regular-season finale against Arkansas currently has individual tickets on sale.
