How slim are Missouri football's odds to win SEC, make CFP in 2025? What betting lines say
How high can Mizzou fly in 2025? Last season, Missouri football fell short of making the 12-team College Football Playoff field with a 9-3 regular-season record that included road losses at Alabama, Texas A&M and South Carolina. Mizzou has won double-digit games in each of the past two seasons, which marked just the third time the Tigers have achieved that feat in program history. If Mizzou can make it three straight years, which would be a program-first, then it will be right back in the CFP conversation. To get there, Missouri has some important calls to make. Multiple fall camp position competitions, most notably at quarterback, remain unsettled. The Tigers' new season begins Thursday, Aug. 28, against Central Arkansas on Faurot Field. Missouri's over/under wins total has been set at 7.5 for the season in Las Vegas. Can Mizzou surpass that and compete on the biggest stage of the sport this December? Here's how likely the oddsmakers think that is, including the Tigers' odds to win the SEC, make the College Football Playoff field and, if you're really into a longshot, win the national title: Missouri football odds to win SEC Mizzou is 12th in the betting order, per BetMGM, with +4,000 odds (40/1) to win the SEC title this year. Texas is the betting favorite at +275, and the Longhorns are followed in short order by Georgia (+320), Alabama (+400) and LSU (+750). The four teams considered more of a longshot than Mizzou to win the league title are Arkansas (+15,000), Vanderbilt (+30,000), Kentucky (+30,000) and Mississippi State (+40,000). The SEC Championship game is set for Dec. 6 in Atlanta. Missouri football odds to make College Football Playoff field BetMGM has Mizzou listed with +725 odds to make the 12-team College Football Playoff field, and -1,200 odds to not make the cut. The Tigers likely need to find 10 regular-season wins to get there.

Go behind the curtains Missouri's odds to win College Football Playoff BetMGM has Mizzou listed with +12,500 odds to win the national title this year. That means a $10 wager would land you $125,000 if the Tigers pulled off the improbable. Seven teams are listed with the same 125/1 odds as Mizzou, with Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Baylor, Kansas State, Kansas and Utah all checking in at the same value. Where to buy Missouri football tickets The Tigers have sold out of season tickets, as well as single-game tickets for games against Kansas, Louisiana and Alabama. That means the only way to watch those games at Memorial Stadium is now through the secondary market. To see a full list of ticket prices, visit StubHub at this link.

Inter Milan Negotiations For Atalanta Talisman At A ‘Complete Standstill' – Talks Could Drag Into Mid-August
Inter Milan's negotiations with Atalanta for Ademola Lookman are still at a 'complete standstill' and could drag into mid-August. This according to today's print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. Inter Milan's pursuit of Ademola Lookman has become the transfer soap opera of the summer. The Nigerian international has done everything he can to push for the move. He has not been in training for over a week, having made a very public transfer request last weekend. Meanwhile, Atalanta have rejected two bids from the Nerazzurri. Most recently an offer worth €45 million with add-ons.

And in the meantime, the Nerazzurri are waiting for something concrete from Atalanta. It has continued to be radio silence from the Bergamo club. There has been no formal counteroffer or valuation for Inter to base another offer on. Therefore, the Gazzetta report, the negotiations are at a 'complete standstill.' Sooner or later, there will be a decisive development. One way or another. However, for now, things could drag on for several more days, the newspaper reports.

Gazzetta: Inter set Lookman limit, Napoli option not over yet
Monday's reports claim that Inter have set their price limit for their no.1 transfer target Ademola Lookman, and that Napoli's interest in the Nigeria international is not over just yet. Inter have been attempting to pull off a move for Atalanta forward Lookman for several weeks, but as things stand, have not found a breakthrough in negotiations with La Dea, who are reluctant to sell one of their star players to a direct league rival. The Nerazzurri have seen an offer of €45m including bonuses turned down for the reigning African Player of the Year, which led to his releasing a statement via social media accusing Atalanta of breaking promises and that he had been treated poorly as a person and professional. MILAN, ITALY – APRIL 20: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta reacts during the Serie A match between AC Milan and Atalanta at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on April 20, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) Lookman had also claimed that he had an agreement in place with Atalanta that he would be able to leave this summer should an appropriate offer come in. Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi has since clarified that while there is an agreement in place to let Lookman leave this summer, it is only for a 'top' club outside of Italy. In frustration, Lookman decided to not report for training with La Dea, and for now, the situation remains locked in a stalemate. Inter hit Lookman limit, Napoli not over BERGAMO, ITALY – JANUARY 21: Ademola Lookman of Atalanta celebrates scoring his team's fourth goal during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 League Phase MD7 match between Atalanta BC and SK Sturm Graz at Stadio di Bergamo on January 21, 2025 in Bergamo, Italy. (Photo by) According to updates from La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter have decided that they are not prepared to go beyond their current price limit for Lookman, which is understood to be at €45m before bonuses, and €50m including them. However, as things stand, there has been little contact with Atalanta, who are trying to show that they are not particularly keen on negotiating with a competitor from the same league. Meanwhile, La Gazzetta dello Sport adds that Napoli, who had originally expressed an interest in signing Lookman as a replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in January, are not completely out of the running, and that they could be ready to pounce if Inter decide to back out of negotiations.
