Tennessee is 2-3 all-time against Missouri with both wins coming in the last two years. The Vols are 1-1 against the Tigers in Columbia.

In 2016, the Vols took a 63-37 win over Missouri in an offensive slugfest that featured Joshua Dobbs rushing for 190 yards and two touchdowns and throwing for 223 yards and three scores.

The first-ever meeting between Tennessee and Missouri in 2012 went to four overtimes and the Tigers came out with a 51-48 win in Knoxville. It tied for the third-longest game in UT history.

Saturday's game will feature Tennessee's stout pass defense taking on Missouri's high-octane passing attack.

The Vols are allowing only 150.0 passing yards per game - tops in the SEC and No. 4 in the nation.

Missouri is averaging 314.9 passing yards per game, which ranks second in the SEC and 14th nationally.

Tigers quarterback Drew Lock leads the country with 31 touchdowns, but Missouri ranks last in the SEC and 118th in the nation in turnover margin (-9).

Junior tailback John Kelly is one of just four players in the nation who leads his team in both rushing and receptions.

On the season, Kelly has rushed 145 times for 694 yards (4.8 average) and eight touchdowns. He has 27 catches for 250 yards (9.2 average). Kelly's 118.0 yards from scrimmage per game ranks second in the SEC and 25th nationally.

I hope again for an injury free game and I will be honest, this time of year I usually start getting depressed because in a few weeks the season gets near the end. This year I am filled with confusion and apathy.

I don't care who the coach is, I want Tennessee to REPRESENT.

Go Big Orange!

I feel like we are going to get waxed, but I'm hopeful for a W. Always Go Big Orange!

The D needs to return turnovers to the end zone. Maybe that would help us score enough to stay close

I’ll have to tune into my ESPN App during work breaks to check on the game.

Man, when is the last time we had a receiver with great numbers?

Yeah each just a shade over 1000 yards in their last seasons. We've gone through some talent since with not a whole lot to show.

The talent has been there, the offense not so much.

Would help if we had a QB that was a good passer though too.

These kids need a win so we can have a shot at a bowl against Vandy.

Defense better be ready.
