Sept. 1, 2012

You've waited 250 days since the 2011 season ended in a victorious Independence Stadium in Shreveport. The 2012 season IS HERE.

Mizzou begins its inaugural season as members of the Southeastern Conference tonight as it welcomes the Lions of Southeastern Louisiana to Faurot Field. If you're unable to order up the pay-per-view broadcast in-state, the ESPN GamePlan coverage out-of-state, or watch online via ESPN3.com, then we've got your clearinghouse for the night.

Come join us for our blow-by-blow coverage of the game. We'll be mixing in our own comments along with publishing selected comments from you, the fans! You Twitter-heads can even get in the game, and become a part of the community we like to call "Twizzou" just by appending the #MIZvSELA hashtag to your tweets.

The game kicks off at 6:07 p.m. CT, but we'll be here well beforehand, so settle into your pregame routine and join us. While you're waiting, choose one of the links on the right for more information on Saturday's game!
