Missouri Tigers vs. Tennessee Volunteers: Prediction, kickoff time, TV

The details

Kickoff: 2:30 p.m. Saturday

Where: Neyland Stadium, Knoxville, Tenn.

TV: CBS

Radio: KMBZ (98.1 FM)

The line: Missouri by 6 1/2

Prediction

Aside from last year’s game, Missouri and Tennessee usually keep it close. Missouri’s offense should be able to score enough to hold off Tennessee. The Vols offense matches up well against Missouri’s defense and if the Tigers defensive line can get into the backfield and give quarterback Jarrett Guarantano trouble, then MU should win. Raytown product Dominic Gicinto becomes the latest true freshman to score a touchdown.

Missouri 40, Tennessee 31
