On This Day in Mizzou History:

October 19, 1895: Missouri and Purdue played a neutral-site game in St. Louis, with the Tigers pulled off a 16-6 victory.

October 19, 1946: In what can only be called a statistical oddity, Missouri picked off eight passes against Iowa State, en route to a 33-13 victory. The record still stands.

October 19, 1985: Missouri came up on the short end against No. 9 Nebraska despite giving up just one touchdown. The problem was Dale Kline made seven field goals in the 28-20 victory. It set an NCAA record, and the 22 points scored by kicking set a Big Eight record.

Oct. 19, 2013: Maty Mauk threw for 295 yards in his first careers start and Andrew Baggett made five field goals as No. 14 Missouri beat No. 22 Florida, 36-17. 

Quote of the Day

Oct. 19: "He looked like a seasoned veteran out there," — Gary Pinkel on Maty Mauk’s first career start on this date in 2013.
