You've waited 239 days since you've last seen the Tigers take to the field in competition. That ends this afternoon.

Mizzou welcomes South Dakota State to Memorial Stadium/Faurot Field to open the 2014 season. The Tigers and Jackrabbits kick things off at 2:32 p.m.

If you're unable to get in front of a TV to catch the national broadcast on ESPNU, you can listen to Mike, Howard and Chris on the Tiger Network call - or if you just want a "second screen" experience, then we've got you covered here!

Come join us for our blow-by-blow coverage of the game. We'll be posting our own "from the couch" observations along with publishing selected comments from you, the fans! We'll be here well before kickoff, so settle into your pregame routine and join us. While you're waiting, choose one of the links above for more information on this afternoon's game!
