No. 8 Alabama (4-1, 2-0 in SEC) visits No. 14 Missouri (5-0, 1-0) in a mouthwatering Week 7 clash of AP Top 25-ranked teams on Saturday. The game will kick off at 12:00 noon ET at Faurot Field Memorial Stadium in Columbia, Missouri.

Last week, Alabama claimed the scalp of previously unbeaten Vanderbilt with a 30-14 win that pushed them at third place in the SEC standings with a 2-0 record. Ty Simpson and the Crimson Tide seek to halt the Tigers' hot start and catch up with conference leaders Ole Miss and Texas A&M.
On the other hand, Missouri looks to resume its fiery surge with quarterback Beau Pribula at center and running back Ahmad Hardy trampling over opponents with his uncanny rushing ability.
In their last game against UMass, Pribula completed 26 of 29 passes for 241 yards with one touchdown and one interception. Hardy, on the other hand, rushed for 130 yards in 24 carries with three TDs to help the Tigers remain unbeaten heading to the crucial clash with Alabama.
Here are the projected lineups for both teams:

How to watch Alabama vs Missouri? TV channel and live stream details for Week 7
The Alabama vs Missouri Week 7 clash at Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium in Columbia, Missouri, will air live on ABC.
Joe Tessitore will serve as the play-by-play announcer with Jesse Palmer serving as analyst. Katie George will work as the sideline reporter for the SEC clash.
Geoffrey Latayan is a journalist who covers college basketball at Sportskeeda. An AB Communication graduate from De La Salle Lipa, he is an avid sports fan who follows college basketball, MLB, NBA and pro wrestling.
As a writer, he's adept at stats and previously covered college sports in the Philippines. Geoff has interviewed former NBA star Detlef Schrempf, although it was way before the "sportsblog" era.
Geoff believes the gap between College sports and major leagues has narrowed thanks to the new stars of the sport, who can give the pro leagues a run for their money.
His favorite college players of all time are Michael Jordan and Allan Iverson. In fact, the Jordan admiration extended to North Carolina becoming his favorite college team as well. Geoff rates Carmelo Anthony winning the national title for Syracuse as his favorite College Sports moment and he is also a die-hard Philadelphia Phillies and Philadelphia 76ers fan.
