The Missouri Tigers had a big game against the Alabama Crimson Tide entering Saturday afternoon. Missouri lost big on the road to Alabama by a final score of 34-0.
With the loss, the Tigers dropped to 6-2 and the Crimson Tide improved to 6-2 on the season. Missouri could very well not make the college football playoffs after that loss against Alabama.
Fans React To Missouri Tigers Being 25 In the AP Poll
For some strange reason, the Missouri Tigers stayed in the Top 25 despite being blown out against the Alabama Crimson Tide. Here is what college football fans had to say about Missouri staying in the Top 25 this week:
Mizzou… what are YOU doing here?

The #APTop25 is dirty. Vandy, the SEC ugly 🐥 becoming a 🪿, beats Bama, needs wins for 3 weeks to make the Top 25. They lose that week to recent #1 Texas (dropped to #6) by 3 they drop out while Mizzou, who lost to Bama 38-0 yesterday stays in just to bolster Bama’s resume🖕🏻

How is Missouri still ranked? They’ve done nothing to deserve a number by their name. Texas A&M at 10 feels right. Pitt-SMU that highly ranked matchup will be sweet

Many of these college football fans are puzzled about the Missouri Tigers staying in the Top 25. Maybe some of that had to do with key injuries during the Alabama Crimson Tide game.
Oklahoma Sooners Next Opponent
The next opponent for the Missouri Tigers will be against the Oklahoma Sooners on November 9. Missouri will be on a bye next week. If the Tigers want any chance to someway somehow get back in the playoff race, they will have to win this game against Oklahoma.
Some believe that the Vanderbilt Commodores deserve to be in the Top 25 over the Missouri Tigers. Missouri being in the Top 25 for now seems shocking after that beatdown against the Alabama Crimson Tide.
