The 1900 Missouri Tigers football team was an American football team that represented the University of Missouri as an independent during the 1900 college football season. The team compiled a 4–4–1 record and was outscored by its opponents by a combined total of 80 to 71. Dave Fultz began the season as the team's head coach before resigning after Missouri's season opener, a win over the Kirksville Osteopaths. He was replaced by Fred W. Murphy, who led the team for the remainder of the season.[1][2] The team played its home games at Rollins Field in Columbia, Missouri.
