- Who does Missouri football play this week? Date, opponent, kickoff time for Week 3
With a Border War in the bag, Missouri football runs into what you'll likely hear some people call a 'trap game.'
With Kansas is in the rearview mirror and the beginning of SEC play just one more week away, Mizzou (2-0) must now take care of business against Louisiana in Week 3. The Ragin' Cajuns from Lafayette, Louisiana, won 10 games in 2024 and made it to the Sun Belt Conference title game.

The No. 25-ranked Tigers will host Louisiana on Saturday in Columbia, which will be the third matchup in a six-game homestand to open the 2025 season.
The Ragin' Cajuns have split their opening two games of the 2025 campaign, with a surprising Week 1 loss to Rice before beating McNeese State in Week 2. Starting quarterback Walker Howard picked up an injury in Week 1 and is expected to miss the Mizzou game.
