Ahead of Gary Pinkel's final home game as head coach of Missouri, the Tigers wanted to praise his contributions to the program with a tribute. 

A "#ThanksGP" sentiment was painted along the sideline near the north end zone. It will be visible during Mizzou's game against Tennessee on Saturday evening. 

Sitting at 5-5, Missouri needs one more victory in order to become bowl eligible. Pinkel has won 118 games as the head coach in Columbia -- including five seasons of at least 10 victories, and five division titles.
