ST. LOUIS — The University of Missouri-Columbia will play one of its football games in St. Louis in 2023, an event that will be part of a series of Mizzou athletic events slated to be hosted locally.
Mizzou’s Sept. 23, 2023, matchup against the University of Memphis’ football team will be held at The Dome at America’s Center, Mizzou announced Monday. The game was initially scheduled to be played at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium in Memphis.
The contest against Memphis is being held at The Dome through a partnership between Mizzou and the St. Louis Sports Commission.
