The University of Missouri has finalized its 2008 football schedule, as announced Friday by the Department of Athletics. The Tigers will again play six games at home and have a total of eight games in the state of Missouri.

The 2008 season will again open up with the State Farm Arch Rivalry game against Illinois at the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis on Aug. 30. The Tigers will be in action on Faurot Field the following three Saturdays, hosting Southeast Missouri State (Sept. 6), Nevada (Sept. 13) and Buffalo (Sept. 20) to close out the non-conference schedule.
