Missouri football’s list of bowl options got smaller Tuesday afternoon as The Cotton Bowl announced via Twitter that it had selected Texas A&M for the game. The Aggies will square off against a Southeastern Conference team that has yet to be decided.

The options for Missouri are now the Alamo Bowl, Insight Bowl, and Holiday Bowl. The Alamo Bowl has not expressed much preliminary interest in the Tigers, while the Insight Bowl will most likely have the choice between Missouri or Oklahoma State. The odd school out will be selected for the Holiday Bowl.
