Welcome to the Morning Commute
Today we’re talking about Mizzou Football
34 carries for 222 rushing yards and two touchdowns? Yeah, that’s certainly worthy of a weekly conference award.
The SEC Co-Offensive Player of the Week goes to Mizzou running back Jamal Roberts (sharing with South Carolina QB LaNorris Sellers).
On MUTigers.com:
Roberts became the first Mizzou player in program history to stack together
back-to-back 200-yard rushing performances in addition to becoming just the third SEC running back in the past 20 seasons to do so, joining Derrick Henry (Alabama) and Leonard Fournette (LSU) who both accomplished the feat in 2015.
Through six games this season, Roberts currently leads the SEC with 828 rushing yards — which is good for second nationally.
Another big day could be in store for Roberts on Saturday afternoon in Oxford — as Ole Miss ranks last in the SEC in rushing defense.
