According to www.Missouri.edu, no one is sure about the origin of the nickname Mizzou. The first known use of the word was in the Missouri Alumni Quarterly in 1906. According to facultycouncil.missouri.edu, one of the names that the University of Missouri was known as in the early 1900s was Missouri State University. Pronouncing the initials (MSU) would sound like mi-zoo.

This is direct from the Univ of Missouri website... Mizzou is the University's nickname and is pronounced mah-ZOO. The word Mizzou is an example of clipping. That means that a longer word, Missouri, got shortened (or clipped) to Mizzou, which is similar but shorter. No one is sure who first used the word Mizzou, but it was used in the Missouri Alumni Quarterly as early as 1906. The University uses the word Mizzou often. A number of print and online publications incorporate the affectionate nickname including our alumni magazine called MIZZOU, our monthly e-newsletter @Mizzou, the faculty and staff newspaper Mizzou Weekly, and our junior high science magazine called Mizzou Magic. It also has a number of fun uses such as a cheer at football and basketball games in which people on one side of the stadium shout M-I-Z, and the other side replies Z-O-U. S. C. Smith, Pensacola FL
