Missouri Tigers Week 3 Opponent Preview: Abilene Christian Wildcats
Coming off a devastating loss to the Kansas State Wildcats in Week 2, the Missouri Tigers will return home and welcome the Wildcats of Abilene Christian.
The Wildcats are looking to steal one from the Tigers on the road. However, the odds of the matchup are stacked rather heavily against them.
Abilene Christian is coming off a hot start to the 2022 season, and currently sits at 2-0 with wins over Lamar and Prarie View A&M.
ACU recently hired former Texas Tech Defensive Coordinator, Keith Patterson for the head coach position, as well as Stephen Lee for Offensive Coordinator, hoping to bring a new angle and tactic to the Wildcat’s playbook.
And so far, it has worked wonderfully.
