The Missouri Tigers athletics programs include the extramural and intramural sports teams of the University of Missouri, located in Columbia, Missouri, United States.

The 1923 Missouri Tigers football team was an American football team that represented the University of Missouri in the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association (Missouri Valley) during the 1923 college football season.

 He played college football at the tackle position for the Missouri Tigers football team from 1924 to 1926.
 He was selected by the International News Service (INS), Newspaper Enterprise Association (NEA) and several others as a first-team player on the 1925 College Football All-America Team.
 The Associated Press and All-American Board named a second-team All-American.
 Lindenmeyer was the University of Missouri's first All-American athlete.
 He later became a physical education teacher and the head football coach at Lake Forest High School in Lake Forest, Illinois he served as head football coach from 1935 to 1951 and compiled a 96–27–10 record.
Elroy Bert Coan III (born July 2, 1940 in Timpson, Texas) is a former American football player.
 He is most notable because of his extraordinary speed (9.4 in the 100-yard dash) and size (6'4", 215 lbs) and because he was the central figure in a dispute over the 1960 college football game between the University of Kansas Jayhawks and the University of Missouri Tigers, the second-longest-running rivalry in college football (known as the "Border War").
 Coan played for Kansas - and helped the Jayhawks win the 1960 game by a score of 23-7 over Missouri, then-ranked #1.
 But later, the Big Eight declared Coan ineligible, due to a recruiting violation by Bud Adams while Coan was still at Texas Christian University (TCU) and forfeited the game to Missouri—thus erasing Missouri's only loss on the field that year.
 Missouri counts the 1960 game as a win by forfeit, thus giving it the only undefeated and untied season in school history.
 The Big Eight also credited the 1960 game to Missouri.
 However, Kansas (and the NCAA) count the game as a Kansas victory.
 Ever since, the two universities have disputed the overall win-loss record in the long-running series.
