The football team at Missouri Southern in their 2018 season against Nebraska-Kearney extended their losing streak to 14 games. Sports Reporter for the Joplin Globe Adam Burns who attended the game says that the Lions didn’t help themselves with two fumbles and only 70 yards of rushing on 30 attempts. This weekend, it will be a battle of the Lions as MSSU takes on Lindenwood University. Kick-off at Fred Hughes stadium in Joplin is Saturday, September 8 at 6 PM.
