Robinson, a rising junior, started the first seven games for the Horned Frogs. He passed for 1,326 yards and threw nine touchdowns this season. The former high school All-American also rushed for 230 yards and three scores.
Robinson suffered a season-ending shoulder injury on Oct. 20 against Oklahoma. He had to have surgery, and he eventually lost the starting job.
The former four-star prospect will likely have to sit out next season. After that, he will have two years of eligibility remaining.
Robinson is the second quarterback to transfer to Mizzou this month. Former Clemson quarterback Kelly Bryant announced his decision to play for Tigers on Dec. 4.
