Mizzou Sells Out Football Season Tickets

SEC! SEC!

That's what fans are saying as Mizzou announced Thursday that it had sold out all its season tickets, which is approximately 46,500. It is the first time in school history the school has sold out of season tickets.

From Mizzou's release:

"We've noted since making the move to the SEC that it would be a gradual process of getting fully acclimated to our new home, but our fans are clearly excited and ahead of that curve," said Director of Athletics Mike Alden. "This is truly an historic benchmark which everyone in Tiger Nation can take pride in."

Single-game tickets for the nonconference games are currently on sale, while SEC single-game tickets will go on sale to the public Aug. 24. They're currently available for Tiger Scholarship Fund members, followed by season-ticket holders.

2012 Missouri Football Preseason: Offensive Line Injuries Hit Tigers

Two likely starters on the Missouri Tigers' offensive line are out indefinitely just a week into fall practices. Senior guard Travis Ruth, who started seven games in 2011, will undergo surgery for a torn left triceps tendon. Backup tackle Taylor Chappell tore his left ACL on Tuesday, and will likely miss the 2012 season. Chappell had been practicing with the starting offensive line as starter Justin Britt recovers from a broken foot.

While both injuries are severe, according to Dave Matter of the Columbia Tribune, neither has technically been labeled as season-ending by the team:

Moller said team trainer Rex Sharp is not declaring either injury as season-ending, but there is no specific timetable for their return. Ruth redshirted in 2008 while recovering from foot surgery and would be eligible to apply for a sixth year of eligibility if he misses the season and wishes to extend his career.

So far the Tigers have inserted a freshman and a junior walk-on in the place of Ruth and Chappell.

2012 Missouri Football: Tigers Reach 45,000 Season Tickets Sold

Missouri's inaugural season in the SEC continues to bring rewards. The school announced on Tuesday that it has reached the goal of 45,000 season tickets sold — the most in school history.

According to the Kansas City Star, the previous school record was 41,413 in 2008 coming off the 12-win season of 2007. Last year, the school sold 39,879 season tickets. While the goal has been reached, it's not quite done. From The Star:

The school says 300 season tickets and 600 football-only student tickets remain. These tickets, plus single-game tickets for the three non-conference home games against Southeastern Louisiana (Sept. 1), Arizona State (Sept. 15) and Syracuse (Nov. 17), are currently on sale.

Single-game SEC tickets go on sale for Tiger Scholarship Fund members at designated levels beginning on Wednesday. Season ticket holders will have the next opportunity, and the tickets will go on sale to the general public on Aug. 24.
