The University of Illinois has canceled its football games against the University of Missouri that were scheduled for the 2027 and 2028 seasons, according to a report from the Columbia Daily Tribune.
The matchups were part of a previously arranged series between the two Midwest programs. No immediate reason for the cancellation was provided in the initial report by Calum McAndrew.
Both schools compete in different conferences, with Illinois in the Big Ten and Missouri in the SEC. The cancellation affects future non-conference scheduling for both programs.
