Last Updated: 08/21/2019 at 10:26 AM ET

Following a regular season in which they went 8-4 and finished #23 in the country, the Missouri Tigers will journey to Memphis to battle the Oklahoma State Cowboys in the Liberty Bowl. The Tigers lost to Texas in the 2017 Outdoors Bowl and are looking to end 2018 on a positive note.

Drew Lock quarterbacks the Tigers and threw for 3125 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 8 interceptions during the regular season. Larry Rountree III was the leading rusher for the Tigers during the regular and ran for 1012 yards and 10 touchdowns on 198 carries. Emanuel Hall is the top receiving threat for the Tigers and caught 35 passes for 756 yards and 6 touchdowns during the regular season. Following a season in which they went 6-6, the Oklahoma State Cowboys battle former Big 10 foe Missouri in the Liberty Bowl. The Cowboys defeated Va Tech in the Camping World Bowl last season and are looking to end 2018 with a bowl victory.

Taylor Cornelius quarterbacks the Cowboys and threw for 3642 yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in the regular season. Justice Hill lead the Cowboys in rushing with 930 yards and 9 touchdowns on 158 carries during the 2018 campaign. Tylan Wallace (79 receptions, 1408 yards, 11 touchdowns) and Tyron Johnson (46 receptions, 704 yards, 5 touchdowns) are the top receiving threats for the Cowboys.

Only thing to worry about in this game is if Missouri's star QB Drew Lock is going to play in the Liberty Bowl. As of now sounds if Lock will play but if he does not would think the play would be taking Oklahoma State. But assuming he plays we love this game to go way over the total with maybe the highest scoring Bowl game this season. Final Score Prediction, Missouri Tigers win in offensive shootout 47-36.
