Chiefs Hosting Missouri Classic

KANSAS CITY, Missouri  --  On September 6th, Arrowhead Stadium will once again host the Missouri Classic. This year, the game will feature the Langston University Lions against the Lincoln University Blue Tigers.


Councilman John Sharp and Councilman Jermaine Reed both played a pivotal role in bringing the Missouri Classic back to Kansas City for the second consecutive year.
This will be the 14th straight year the Chiefs have hosted a college football game at Arrowhead Stadium.
Langston University, the game’s visiting team, finished the 2013 campaign with a 6-4 record and a No. 21 overall ranking, missing out on the NAIA playoffs by one spot. Chiefs Hall of Fame RB Mike Garrett, who spent five years in a Chiefs uniform from 1966-70 and is a member of the club’s Super Bowl IV-winning team, is currently the Athletic Director at Langston University.
