Mizzou Quote of the Day:

Darius Robinson on his emotions ahead of his last game at Faurot Field: "It's been five years, I thought last year was the last time and now this time is really the last time. I just think about all of my teammates I've had in the past, all my coaches who got me to this point, just thanking Mizzou one more time. I'm going to do something on special on Senior Night but y'all see on Saturday. I'm excited but also very sad at the same time."

We'll Leave You With This ...
