Why Missouri State football canceled its 2025 game against Arkansas, Bobby Petrino
Missouri State football coach Ryan Beard reviews offseason
Missouri State head footblal coach Ryan Beard talked about his team’s performance following its final scrimmage of fall camp.
Missouri State football’s first game as an FBS program won’t be against Arkansas.
The university confirmed Missouri State and Arkansas agreed to cancel their Aug. 30, 2025, date that would have put head coach Ryan Beard against his father-in-law and former Bears head coach Bobby Petrino, who returned to Fayetteville as the Razorbacks offensive coordinator.
WholeHogSports.com was the first to report the cancelation of the game. The Razorbacks have replaced Missouri State with a contest against Alabama A&M.
Missouri State spokesperson Rick Kindhart told the News-Leader that the Bears opted to cancel the deal after trying to renegotiate the guaranteed payment of the game. With Missouri State moving to FBS, the cost of such non-conference games is set to go up.

Arkansas declined to budge off the previously negotiated $500,000 payment that was agreed to long before the Bears moved subdivisions, Kindhart said. He added the Bears will pay Arkansas around $150,000 but will soon announce a game that includes a higher guarantee payment, making the buyout worth it.
Who could Missouri State football open against in 2025?
A handful of power conference programs have available dates on the weekend of Aug. 30 including:
- Iowa
- USC
- Florida
- Vanderbilt
- BYU
- Kansas
- Stanford
- Pittsburgh
- Miami (Florida)
- Duke
There is reason to believe Missouri State will continue to attempt to renegotiate its guarantee payments for future non-conference games against FBS opponents that were previously agreed to. The Bears have multiple contracts in place for the future including against Kansas (2027), Texas Tech (2028), Mizzou (2029 and 2033) and Tulsa (2030 and 2032).

If the season were to end this week, Texas A&M would be a No. 3 seed in the College Football Playoff based on the first CFP rankings that were released on Tuesday, Nov. 4. The Aggies have two ranked wins on the season, and hold the No. 3 spot in both the US LBM Coaches Poll and AP Top 25 poll.
As for Missouri, which is starting true freshman quarterback Matt Zollers with Beau Pribula injured, the Tigers have some work to do for their postseason prospects. Eli Drinkwitz’s squad comes in at No. 22 in the CFP top 25 rankings, meaning they are well out of the 12-team picture as things stand currently, and a win over Texas A&M would surely help.

AI Chatbots and Mental Health: Missouri Expert Warns of Rising Teen Use – Missourinet
Artificial Intelligence or AI is everywhere, even in mental health care.
With demand for services soaring and resources stretched thin, it sounds like the perfect solution.
But after headlines about chatbots causing harm, is AI really safe?
MU Health Care psychiatrist Dr. Arpit Aggarwal told Missourinet that for many people, AI can be the first point of contact when they’re struggling.
“But it’s not at a place yet where it’s ready to replace a professionally trained therapist in human or person therapist,” said Aggarwal. “And that’s why it’s the concern. It might be a good tool to start your process with, but it cannot replace a human therapist.”
Dr. Aggarwal said some safeguards have been put in place.
“ChatGPT which is one of the bigger players here they recently announced a new policy in which if they determine at their end that their risk for suicide they would automatically get them some help from a like a human,” said Aggarwal.
Could artificial intelligence ever replace a human as a therapist?
Aggarwal (told Missourinet that it is a very tough question to answer.
“Psychiatry and psychotherapy, it’s very highly dependent on empathy, reading emotions and most of the AI are more language models,” said Aggarwal. “So as of now, there’s nothing which can say that they can replace the human therapist in the near future.”
Dr. Arpit says using AI as a therapist is becoming more common, especially among teens—and that trend is raising serious concerns.
