The Border War began in 1891 and for 19 of the first 20 games, both sides travelled to Kansas City .

The lone game not in Kansas City to this point was played in St. Joseph in 1907 .

Missouri ended the season 2-4-2 with wins against William Jewell and Missouri School of Mines .

The Tigers lost to Iowa State , Nebraska and Oklahoma , tied Washington ( Mo. ) and lost to Saint Louis .

The series sat at 4-13-3 with two consecutive ties.
