COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

The Mizzou football team thoroughly dominated Murray State in the season opener, on Thursday, showing off its newcomers on the offensive and defensive side of the the ball.

The 51-point shutout is a good way to start the season, but head coach Eli Drinkwitz and company aren't patting themselves on the back.

"Two years ago we had a big win and then kinda laid an egg the very next week because we patted ourselves on the back, you know, for a week. So, we're not gonna do that," Drinkwitz said.
