A first SEC Championship Game berth is almost within reach for Mizzou, but Johnny Football still stands in the Tigers’ way.
Missouri has been the best FBS team against the spread this season at 10-1 ATS this season. They will enter this final home game as the favorites, when they are 8-1 ATS. [sc:NCAA240banner ]
And despite Johnny Football’s heroics, the Aggies are 0-3 ATS on the road this year.
