A big win means some big awards!

After Mizzou’s huge 30-27 win over then No. 15 Kansas State on Saturday to improve to 3-0 on the season, multiple Tigers have won Player of the Week awards from their performances.

Starting off with the conference weekly awards, and to no one’s surprise — Harrison Mevis has been named SEC Specialist of the Week.

According to MUTigers.com, Mevis has made 66 career field goals (so far) in his Mizzou career, which ties Andrew Baggett for a program record.

Meanwhile, Mizzou Football’s Week 5 SEC Opener at Vanderbilt on September 30th has been set for a 3:00 p.m. CST kick-off on the SEC Network.
