Cornerback Marvin Burks, Jr. who snagged an impressive interception in last week’s rout against Buffalo, showed off the kit in a video shot atop the famous Tiger Hotel in downtown Columbia.
Fans will be able to match with the players, as the team has scheduled a Gold-Out theme for Saturday’s game.
The team had worn black tops in their first two games, which were both late afternoon/night games. This week, the gold uniforms will shine for the 11:45 a.m. kickoff.
The last time Missouri wore gold uniforms was last year’s regular-season finale on the road at Arkansas on Nov. 24, 2023, which the Tigers won 48-14. The last time Missouri wore gold uniforms at home was last year’s homecoming game, when they defeated South Carolina 34-12.

The last and only time Missouri played Boston College, a 41-34 overtime loss in Chestnut Hill, Mass., the Tigers wore white tops.
In that matchup, they also wore gold helmets with the Block M, but for this game, the Tigers stuck with the black “Oval Tiger” helmet. The fan-favorite Block M has yet to be seen on the field this year.
