It’s been over a decade since the last time the Kansas State Wildcats and the Missouri Tigers met on the gridiron.
Back in early October of 2011, HoFHC Bill Snyder’s squad was already looking to have a special season after winning on an epic goal-line stand at Miami, and then taking down Baylor and eventual Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III in Manhattan. It was Missouri’s last season in the Big 12 conference, and were riding into Manhattan on a five-game win streak over K-State — three wins over Ron Prince, and two more over Snyder, a rare feat for Mizzou and head coach Gary Pinkel, while he was rebuilding.
