If you’re like most Mizzou fans, you may be a bit apprehensive about trading in the eternally hated Jayhawks  for an entirely new rival that has yet to be determined. After all, it’s only natural to fear the unknown.

Fortunately, Dave Matter, Ron Higgins and Steve Richardson are here to educate us with their new book The  Mizzou Fan’s Survival Guide to the SEC. This 202-page paperback provides Tigers fans with a comprehensive  tour of our new conference, offering insight on everything from the best places to tailgate at each school to a  history of their mascots.

Matter, a Columbia Daily Tribune writer, will be signing copies of his book at the MU Bookstore and Shiloh’s on Wednesday. For only $16, this is one guidebook you’ll be glad you picked up.
