An interesting thing about Missouri...

Several southern University nicknames have ties to the Civil War Between the States.

Mizzou is no exception. Yet while Missouri's history during the war is most notable for Quantrill, Bloody Bill Anderson, the James Brothers who were all confederates...

The Missouri "Tigers" were named after a Union militia that organized around Columbia to protect the city from those guys after they burned down Lawrence, KS.
