After a last-ditch effort to force overtime fell one inch short two weeks ago against Vanderbilt in a 17-10 loss, Mizzou’s margin of error to reach the College Football Playoff dropped to zero.
And the
Tigers’ tall task was heightened further when they learned starting quarterback Beau Pribula would miss an extended period of time with an ankle dislocation. Kirby Moore’s offense is now in the hands of the former five-star Matt Zollers, who shined in relief of Pribula against the Commodores.
Every game is a must-win for Mizzou’s playoff hopes, and that starts with today’s matchup against undefeated and third-ranked Texas A&M.
The Tigers will try to pull off the upset as touchdown underdogs in front of a sold-out Faurot Field in just over an hour. We’ll have the most notable updates from the game here in this article. For all of our live updates, check our forums over at RockM+.
