Pregamin’ Oklahoma State

Pete Scantlebury, Football Editor: I think from a purely matchup standpoint, the Liberty Bowl is a fantastic destination for Missouri. At this level of bowls (the mid-tier ones), the name of the bowl doesn’t really matter; it’s about the match-up. Oklahoma State is a great opponent -- it’s someone Missouri should beat, but someone that will provide some challenges for Missouri (specifically on defense). It’s also a team that should let a guy like Drew Lock have a big game in his career finale. So, based on how the season played out, I’m very happy about this bowl game and match-up.
