Football at K-State, Soccer
by Mizzou Matt 10/4/11
The University of Missouri has a busy weekend ahead of them. The football team travels to Manhattan, KS to take on the 20th-ranked Kansas State Wildcats. K-State is coming off a one point upset of Heisman hopeful Robert Griffin III and the Baylor Bears. Mizzou is coming off a bye week after a 10-pt loss to then number one Oklahoma. K-State is 4-0 on the year, Mizzou an even 2-2.
"They [K-State] were busy preparing for Baylor while we were preparing for them," said wide receiver Jerrell Jackson. Last year, Mizzou defeated K-State 38-28 in Columbia. T.J. Moe hauled in two TD catches and Blaine Gabbert displayed both ground and aerial tactics in the win.
Tiger soccer is also in action this weekend with a home game at the Walton Complex on Friday vs. SIUE at 6:30p, then again on Sunday at Baylor. The ladies are coming off of a 2-1 loss to Texas last Sunday and are 9-5 overall and 1-3 in conference play.
