Mizzou’s Playoff Push 2026 | Missouri Tigers Football News

Mizzou’s path to the College Football Playoff in 2026 is heating up—ranked fifth by PFF after a quiet but impressive run, with 29 wins since 2023. The key? Health of star RB Ahmad Hardy and the potential breakout of QB Austin Simmons, fresh from Ole Miss. With a revamped offense, new OC, and a brutal SEC slate, the Tigers face big hurdles—but also big chances to shine. Defensive lineman Sterling Webb’s possible return could be a game-changer, while the tennis program and baseball team (including top recruit Myles Ross) are also building momentum. With fan votes closing for the “Best Team” award, Mizzou’s rise is no longer a dream—it’s a possibility waiting to explode.
