It depends where you're at in the state, the northern part... not too southern. But I dare you to go to Sikeston, Cape, or Poplar Bluff and tell them they aren't southern.
Somewhat similar to Texas. Many don't consider us "deep south" but the eastern portion of the state is pretty damn southern. You feel like you are in the south in College Station, yet an hr and a half west in Austin, you don't get that vibe at all. East Texas is pretty damn deep south.

The map below is roughly accurate on the culture of Missouri. The bootheel itself is part of the mississippi delta and is filled with swamp land. Definitely a south/deep south feel. Then there's a lot of upper south and Ozark culture spread across the southern third of the state.
This is also a good article to read on it. A professor of southern history/politics who taught at ole miss for 9 years says he considers Missouri the northernmost-Southern state.
Columbia, Missouri was also voted one of the top Southern college towns.
