    Playing a Thursday night road game at Mizzou next year

    This is great, the rest of the schedule will be released in a minute, but I love Thursday night road game.

    1. Usually the crowd is more dead

    2. Gives you an extra few days to prepare for your next opponent. Almost an extra bye week.

    I disagree with Thursday night crowds being dead. Home underdogs routinely overperform in Thursday night games.

    I hate that. It will be, what, 2027 before we play another game there?

    I don't think MSU @ Missouri is worth taking 2 days off of work...

    There lies the problem. No one travels to thursday road games. Home field advantage is amplified.

    Well, I know we have hosted a number of Thursday night games, and, with the exception of the Egg Bowls, I don't ever feel like the atmosphere is the same as it is on Saturday

    The difference in how many fans we would have on a Thursday night versus a Saturday night at Columbia, Missouri is negligible at best.
