Spring Football Gets Underway

March 10, 2015

Columbia, Mo. - It seems like just yesterday that the Mizzou Tigers were finishing off a 33-17 win over Minnesota in the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl to cap an amazing 11-3 season. But in the world of athletics, things move fast, and we've already arrived at spring football season at Mizzou!

Head Coach Gary Pinkel and his team went through the paces of a 2-1/2 hour workout in shorts and helmets Tuesday afternoon on a sun-splashed Faurot Field in perfect weather conditions. It was the first of 15 spring practices, with camp continuing until it wraps up with the annual Black & Gold Game on Saturday, April 18th at 4:00 p.m.

Until then, www.MUTigers.com will provide coverage and updates throughout camp.

Here's a photo gallery from Tuesday's camp-opening practice:
