Having had the chance to live in areas with some great football programs, it is a pleasure to say that I have been able to see some of these teams play some great football games, and as I’m sure any fan has a wish list of who they’d love to see Mizzou play, these are mine.
Missouri may not be in the greatest place now to square off against some of the top programs in the nation, but that is bound to change in the near future, as recruiting has improved for the Tigers, and the Mizzou coaching staff is getting its feet under it in the second season.
Choosing five teams is tough. Honestly, I could probably list an extra 10 teams, but with the way that schedules are selected many years in advance, I may not live long enough to see the added 10, if I’m fortunate enough to see these five.
