Sure.

Missouri football has a 5-1 record with a 1-1 mark in SEC play heading into a home matchup with Auburn on Saturday in Columbia. Mizzou has a win over Vanderbilt that is looking better and better with each subsequent Commodores victory, a one-score win over Boston College and a blowout loss at Texas A&M.

That run has the national media and bowl prognosticators — like most — skeptical about the potential for MU to mount a late-season run toward the 12-team College Football Playoff. Time will tell, perhaps as soon as Saturday, whether that’s still a possible goal.

Here is where Missouri has landed in bowl projections from major national media outlets:

Action Network: Music City Bowl vs. Michigan

A game against the reigning national champion?

Brett McMurphy of Action Network has Missouri, a year after beating Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl, heading to face the other half of The Game with a matchup against Michigan in the Music City Bowl on Dec. 30 in Nashville, Tennessee.

The matchup would take place at Nissan Stadium, home of the Tennessee Titans.

The Wolverines currently are 4-2 with losses to Texas and Washington. Mizzou hasn’t played Michigan since 1975, and the two teams have never faced off in a bowl.
