Odds and Spread
Betting lines for this game are not posted yet. This table fills in automatically once books release them.
Missouri is a heavy home favorite as the ranked team coming off a rivalry win. Troy is 2-0 but neither win came against a Power Four opponent, so the market is treating this as a mismatch despite the matching records.

How Both Teams Got Here
Missouri is 2-0 with a 54-14 win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff and a 38-21 win at Kansas in the Border War, a road rivalry win that got the Tigers ranked.
Troy is 2-0 as well, with a 24-21 win over Sam Houston and a 34-17 win over Alabama State. Both were at home and neither opponent was from a Power Four conference.
What to Watch
Missouri’s rhythm after an emotional rivalry win on the road. Those games are often followed by a flat first quarter, and Troy is the kind of opponent that can make a slow start uncomfortable if it hits an early explosive play.
Troy’s three point win over Sam Houston is the concern for the visitor. This is a team that has not been dominant against its own level of competition, and Faurot Field at night with a ranked home team is a significant step up.
