Texas Put on Upset Alert Before Massive SEC Showdown Against Missouri
Two ESPN personalities picked Missouri to beat Texas in a matchup with major College Football Playoff implications.
Texas and Missouri are set to face off in one of many high-profile matchups on Saturday during an already packed college football schedule. ESPN analysts Peter Burns and Josh Pate have both expressed their opinions on the game, with Burns favoring Missouri and Pate seeing Missouri as outright favorites. Missouri is led by their strong offense, featuring Austin Simmons, while Texas has responded to recent setbacks with victories over Ole Miss and Mississippi State.
A win for Missouri could have significant implications for the College Football Playoff aspirations of the Tigers, while the Longhorns are wary of another loss after their recent defeats to Oklahoma and Florida. The game is scheduled to begin at noon ET on ESPN and Disney+.
