We’re jumping just a few years into the future of the series since our last look at 1936, but since then, the Tigers have won four-of-five matchups with the one non-win being a tie. And then Missouri posted its most dominant win of the series yet with a 45-6 win on the road, following up a 45-20 win the season before in Columbia.
