SEC Nation setting up at Carnahan Quadrangle on September 4.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tomorrow is our long-awaited, sold-out rivalry game versus kU<\/a>! Adding to the excitement, we\u2019re also welcoming \u201cSEC Nation\u201d back to campus for the first time since 2019! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a historic moment, and we need your help to showcase Mizzou\u2019s commitment to excellence and the unparalleled gameday experience across campus. Excitement kicks off at 7 a.m. with “Good Morning America” airing a live shot of fans from Carnahan Quadrangle. Full SEC Network coverage starts soon after at 8 a.m. A full schedule<\/a> is available from Mizzou Athletics. All Tigers are encouraged to stop by and show your Mizzou pride.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the day, we\u2019ll highlight Truman and Spirit Squads, the Tiger Food Pantry and Sack Hunger food drive<\/a>, progress on the Memorial Stadium Centennial Project<\/a>, as well as MizzouRec and other resources that support student well-being and success. Guests will include Mizzou\u2019s very own journalism professor and Tiger alum, John Anderson<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This weekend also marks the official launch of our transformative campaign<\/a> to secure Mizzou\u2019s land-grant mission for generations. I hope you can join us this evening for \u201cIlluminate Mizzou,\u201d a campaign launch event that features a drone show at 9 p.m. on Carnahan Quadrangle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the most exciting week in Mizzou history! I can\u2019t wait to celebrate Mizzou\u2019s continued momentum in the SEC and to share the impact of our incredible community with the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
