#MizzouMade Markus Golden, Marcus Murphy Return to The Zou

COLUMBIA, Mo. - 2014 was a special season again for Mizzou Football as the team claimed its second consecutive SEC East Division Championship while going 11-3. Two of the biggest contributors on that team were DE Markus Golden and RB Marcus Murphy, both of whom made NFL rosters this fall after being drafted in the spring. Golden, a second-round pick by the Arizona Cardinals, made that team after a strong preseason and Murphy, a seventh-round draft pick by the Saints, impressed head coach Sean Payton enough to earn a spot on that team. Both Golden and Murphy were back at The Zou last Saturday for Mizzou's season-opening win over Southeast Missouri. Below are some of the top tweets from their homecoming and Mizzou Network's Lauren Holman caught up with Golden at the game. Be sure to watch that video above.
